About this product

Product Information

This revised and expanded edition of the classic Elements of Acoustic Phonetics provides a concise introduction to basic concepts of acoustics and digital speech processing that are important to linguists, phoneticians, and speech scientists. The second edition includes four new chapters that cover new experimental techniques in acoustic phonetics made possible by the use of computers. Assuming no background in physics or mathematics, Ladefoged explains concepts that must be understood in using modern laboratory techniques for acoustic analysis, including resonances of the vocal tract and the relation of formants to different cavities; digital speech processing and computer storage of sound waves; and Fourier analysis and Linear Predictive Coding, the equations used most frequently in the analysis of speech sounds. Incorporating recent developments in our knowledge of the nature of speech, Ladefoged also updates the original edition's discussion of the basic properties of sound waves; variations in loudness, pitch, and quality of speech sounds; wave analysis; and the hearing and production of speech.

Unfortunately, so many eBay sellers use the same generic picture and false prewritten narratives for their listings. I usually skip such listing entirely! "ShopN' Joy" caught my attention when I saw multiple pictures of the actual listed book and a narrative that was clearly specific to the book. Buyers were even offered options to upgrade shipping. The book arrived well packaged and exactly as described. Multiple pictures and a narrative to match. Excellent! Very well done by every measure.
