Cochlear implants: historical perspectives

Clark, Graeme M. (Whurr, 1995)

These historical perspectives are seen from a personal point of view, and date back to the author's first involvement with cochlear implant research at the beginning of 1967. The perspectives are aimed at presenting the questions asked, the difficulties faced and the solutions achieved in the development of our multichannel cochlear prosthesis. Work in other centres is discussed when relevant, to set our research in context. Space does not permit a detailed presentation of our research or the contributions of others. It is hoped, however, that by presenting personal perspectives on the cut and thrust of human endeavour, and its interface with technology, a contribution will be made to the overall goal of understanding the origins of cochlear implants.
