Books Descriptions
Speech Science integrates scientific material on the acoustics, anatomy,
and physiology of speech production and perception with state-of-the-art
instrumental techniques used in clinical practice. Each chapter presenting
theoretical information is followed by a corresponding chapter on clinical
application, demonstrating the connections between scientific theory and
clinical management of communication disorders. To reinforce this link,
case studies and questions in each clinical application chapter help
students focus on how scientific principles are applied in clinical contexts.
Call-out notes, summary points, and review questions help students
consolidate material for improved retention. Schematic illustrations
enhance the text and demonstrate anatomical and functional relationships
between structures. With this student- and instructor-friendly text,
students will find theoretical information meaningful, less intimidating,
and more easily accessible. The Second Edition
