Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines auditory perception in various primitive cultures, investigating both the acuity of their hearing and the upper range of their audible frequencies to provide insight into how these attributes compare to modern humans. The author, a pioneer in the field of auditory testing, conducted extensive research during the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, where he tested the hearing of over 400 individuals representing 14 different primitive groups. The book details the methods used for auditory testing and includes a wealth of statistical data, providing a comprehensive analysis of the hearing abilities of these populations. The author also explores how these findings contribute to our understanding of the evolution of human sensory perception. This book will be of great interest to anthropologists, ethnologists, and anyone interested in the study of human sensory perception.
