Hearing is one of our most vital senses. Our sensitive ears provide us with crucial information that keeps us safe, enables us to communicate, and allows us to enjoy the beauty of music. However, modern civilization generates so much noise that, without deliberate care, we gradually lose our ability to hear clearly and understand what others are saying.
Fortunately, this is not inevitable! Drawing on fifty years of scientific research into the ears of humans and other animals, Geoff Manley traces the origins of these remarkable organs and the breakthroughs that have deepened our understanding of how they work.
Our ears cannot handle the loud noises of civilization without suffering irreversible damage—and they need protection. Ears Wide Open explains why this is the case and shows how and why you can and should protect your hearing.
