The Acoustic Analysis Of Speech presents essential information on modern methods for the acoustic analysis of speech. It assumes only a modest technical background and is intended for the reader who wants to know the basic issues in speech analysis but does not have an extensive background in engineering, physics or mathematics. The book discusses the basic methods for the acoustic analysis of speech in relation to (a) the acoustic theory of speech production and (b) measures of primary interest to speech scientists, speech-language pathologists, linguists, psychologists or others who are interested in the acoustic signal of speech. Readers will gain an understanding of theory, methods and databases pertaining to speech acoustics. The book offers a simple and straightforward explanation of all aspects of acoustic analysis from recording the signal, to analysis methods, to sources of data on phonetic and suprasegmental aspects of speech. It relies on numerous illustrations and includes reference to acoustic data for several languages in addition to English.

It's not likely you're buying this book to read for pleasure, neither did I.

I find the subject matter interesting, but the presentation is terrible. Required reading for my Acoustics class, I found this book extremely dry - one of the more frustrating aspects though, is the way the book is organized. It seems that the editors haven't spent any time worrying about the readability of this book (for whatever reason.) The author refers to tables that are pages before and after text, leaving the reader constantly flipping back and forth in a chapter to refer to diagrams.

I purchased this for a class and we were pretty underwhelmed to find there were a number or errors throughout the text. Value for value, I don't feel like it is on par with other, better edited books in terms of content, layout, or functionality.

Excellent condition and I paid a lower price for it too! No complaints here..

Fountain_tenderness

The book is great, especially for my class. The only problem I had was I ordered the book on December 12th and was supposed to receive it by December 20th, but did not get it until January 7th.

I am about half way through reading this book for a course I'm taking. It is pretty good but, if you're like me, you'll definitely need to look up terms that are not explained. The glossary in the book is not super extensive, at 5 1/2 pages. The tone of the writing is also inconsistent: it ranges from chatty to highly technical.

The book itself seems very cheaply made ... the (paperback) cover and pages are so thin that it flops around and bends quite easily, and if you highlight in it, your marks may show through to the other side of the page. Interior is black and white (not that it really needs color).

Kupidon

there may be a hundred books that teach acoustic analysis of speech, however this book will make the reader smile all along as he/she reads. The explanations are clear, and easily digested by the reader. It gives a feeling that kent and read are beside you and explainging things out and thats what a student expects from a book.
