Phonetics: Transcription, Production, Acoustics, and Perception offers a comprehensive guide to the study of speech and sound. Written in a clear and concise style by two of the field's leading scholars, Phonetics is an essential textbook for students of phonetics and speech science, as well as anyone in related fields seeking an introduction to the complete range of mechanisms of speech. Unlike many other texts, Phonetics delves deeply into:
* Speech production: how sounds are produced

* Speech perception: how speech is perceived by listeners
As it explores the entire range of human speech, Phonetics is informed throughout by the latest research in this rapidly changing field. A companion website is available at www. blackwellpublishing. com/phonetics, providing exercises for each chapter, as well as an array of sound files to lead students to an in-depth understanding of the field of phonetics.
