"Dr. Dori-Eva Bamiou, MD, MSc, FRCP, PhD, UCL Ear Institute, ENT & Audiology News 22(5), (Nov/Dec 2013): ""...This book (second edition) is written at an intermediate level...but may also be useful for those with more advanced knowledge. The strength of the book is that [Bellis] writes from a clinican's as well as a researcher's perspective and makes the 'hard science' parts interesting and relevant to those who are better versed in clinical than academic/ research skills. The book is written in the style of an auditorium delivered live lecture...[T]he reasoning is easy to follow, and [Bellis] provides clinical scenario examples and occasionally draws similarities between central auditory processing disorders (CAPD) and other conditions to illustrate and make more accessible the point that she makes. The book synthesizes a great deal of information to make clinically relevant recommendations/ conclusions...This book is a good starting point for those wishing to understand this complex field, whether they are clinicians with little or no research experience, or researchers with little clinical exposure."""
