Studies in General and English Phonetics - Essays in Honour of Professor J.D. O'Connor (Hardcover)

Encompassing a formidable collection of short essays on phonetics, "Studies in General and English Phonetics" was compiled as a tribute to Professor J. D. O'Connor, one of the world's most renowned teachers and writers of phonetics in the English language.
The book's 38 articles bring together 45 of the most distinguished and respected names in the field of phonetics, and cover a wide range of fascinating topics in descriptive and experimental phonetics and phonology. Aside from familiar topics such as rhythm, intonation, pronunciation and lexicography, "Studies in General and English Phonetics" also addresses issues on the cutting edge of the field, including computer synthesized audio-communications, and procedures in forensic linguistics.
This volume will not only be of interest to readers concerned with linguistics and phonetics, but also to those concerned with the teaching of English as a foreign language and other fields. With its comprehensive, up-to-date bibliography, it will prove an invaluable text to all interested readers.
