Summary:
"The clear and easy way to get a handle on the science of speech. The science of how people produce and perceive speech,
phonetics
has an array of real-world applications, from helping engineers create an authentic sounding Irish or Canadian accent for a GPS voice, to assisting forensics investigators identifying the person whose voice was caught on tape, to helping a film actor make the transition to the stage.
Phonetics
is a required course among students of speech pathology and linguistics, and it's a popular elective among students of telecommunications and forensics. The first popular guide to this fascinating discipline, is an excellent overview of the field for students enrolled in introductory
phonetics
courses and an ideal introduction for anyone with an interest in the field."--Publisher.
