International audience. Of all the signals human auditory cortex has to process, the one with the most compelling relevance to the listener is arguably speech. Parsing and decoding speech—the conspecific signal affording the most rapid and most precise transmission of information—must be considered one of the principal challenges of the auditory system. This chapter concentrates on what speech perception entails and what the constituent operations might be, emphasizing a neurophysiological perspective.
