Synopsis
To demystify a topic that she has found often intimidates students, Ferrand (speech-language-hearing sciences, Hostra U.) breaks the material into explicitly linked units. Taking a systems approach, the author relates scientific concepts to human communicative behavior and clinical "mis" behavior. In addition to covering the standard topics of the nature of sound, the physiological systems involved, models and theories of speech production and perception, and clinical applications, she takes into account the impact on the field of technological advances. Includes review exercises, an extensive glossary, and an appendix of symbols for consonants and vowels. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (book news. com)
