Quelques sons parviennent encore à l'oreille droite de Louise, mais plus rien à gauche. Celle qui s'est construite depuis son enfance sur un entre-deux – ni totalement entendante, ni totalement sourde – voit son audition baisser drastiquement lors de son dernier examen chez l'ORL. Face à cette perte inéluctable, son médecin lui propose un implant cochléaire. Un implant cornélien, car l'intervention est irréversible et lourde de conséquences pour l'ouïe de la jeune femme. Elle perdrait sa faible audition naturelle au profit d'une audition synthétique, et avec elle son rapport au monde si singulier, plein d'images et d'ombres poétiques.  Jusqu'à présent, Louise a toujours eu besoin des lèvres des autres pour entendre. C'est grâce à la lumière qu'elle peut comprendre les mots qu'elle enfile ensuite, tels des perles de son, pour reconstituer les conversations. Mais parfois le fil lâche et surgissent alors des malentendus, des visions loufoques qui s'infiltrent dans son esprit et s'incarnent en de fabuleux personnages  : un soldat de la Première Guerre mondiale, un chien nommé Cirrus ou encore une botaniste fantasque qui l'accompagnent pendant ces longs mois de réflexion, de doute, au cours desquels elle tente de préserver son univers grâce à un herbier sonore. Un univers onirique qui se heurte constamment aux grands changements de la vie de Louise  – les émois d'un début de relation amoureuse, un premier emploi à la mairie, une amitié qui se délite. Le temps presse et la jeune femme doit annoncer sa décision… Dans ce texte plein d'humour et de douceur, Adèle Rosenfeld tient en joue la peur du silence en explorant les failles du langage ainsi que la puissance de l'imaginaire. Les méduses n'ont pas d'oreilles est une plongée dans le monde des sourds et des malentendants, un premier roman éblouissant.

Soun is nought but air y-broke —Geoffrey Chaucer end of the 14th century Traditionally, acoustics has formed one of the fundamental branches of physics. In the twentieth century, the ?eld has broadened considerably and become - creasingly interdisciplinary. At the present time, specialists in modern acoustics can be encountered not only in physics departments, but also in electrical and mechanical engineering departments, as well as in mathematics, oceanography, and even psychology departments. They work in areas spanning from musical instruments to architecture to problems related to speech perception. Today, six hundred years after Chaucer made his brilliant remark, we recognize that sound and acoustics is a discipline extremely broad in scope, literally covering waves and vibrations in all media at all frequencies and at all intensities. This series of scienti?c literature, entitled Modern Acoustics and Signal P- cessing (MASP), covers all areas of today’s acoustics as an interdisciplinary?eld. It offers scienti?c monographs, graduate-level textbooks, and reference materials in such areas as architectural acoustics, structural sound and vibration, musical acoustics, noise, bioacoustics, physiological and psychological acoustics,speech, ocean acoustics, underwater sound, and acoustical signal processing.

Cochlear implants are currently the standard treatment for profound sensorineural hearing loss. In the last decade, advances in auditory science and technology have not only greatly expanded the utility of electric stimulation to other parts of the auditory nervous system in addition to the cochlea, but have also demonstrated drastic changes in the brain in responses to electric stimulation, including changes in language development and music perception. Auditory Prostheses: New Horizons examines a range of current issues that concern complex processing of sounds by the prosthetic device users. Advances in Auditory Prostheses - Fan-Gang Zeng.
