Hi,
    Latest versions of Csound have a spatial sound opcode (hrtfer) - 
information on the bath site readmes etc. However, if you want to know 
more about the psychophysics, psychology and physics of actual 
spatial hearing (in both open and enclosed spaces) the most 
comprehensive reference available is by J.Blauert and called "Spatial 
Hearing", a 1997 edition has just come out (sorry I can't remember 
the publishers).
    For a more application based approach try a book by D.R. Begault 
(1994) "3D sound for virtual reality and multimedia" AP Professional, 
Cambridge, MA.
