Speech and Voice Science, Fourth Edition is the only textbook to
provide comprehensive and detailed information on both voice source
and vocal tract contributions to speech production. In addition, it
is the only textbook to address dialectical and nonnative language
differences in vowel and consonant production, bias in perception
of speaker identity, and prosody (suprasegmental features) in
detail. With the new edition, clinical application is integrated
throughout the text. Due to its highly readable writing style is
user-friendly for all levels of students, instructors report using
this book for a wide variety of courses, including undergraduate
and graduate courses in acoustic phonetics, speech science,
instrumentation, and voice disorders. Heavily revised and updated,
this fourth edition offers multiple new resources for instructors
and students to enhance classroom learning and active student
participation. At the same time, this text provides flexibility to
allow instructors to construct a classroom learning experience that
best suits their course objectives. Speech and Voice Science now
has an accompanying workbook by Alison Behrman and Donald Finan!

Speech and Voice Science Workbook is an excellent new companion to
the textbook Speech and Voice Science, Fourth Edition. Divided into
chapters that correspond with Speech and Voice Science, this
workbook is designed to provide a valuable tool for students to
expand their understanding of this challenging course subject. The
workbook is intended to be used for student review, self-study and
exam preparation, to highlight areas of confusion, to learn new
concepts, to connect ideas, and to spark new questions and
thoughtful discussions. There are four different types of sections
which appear throughout the workbook: Foundational Knowledge,
Conceptual Integration, and Clinical Application questions, and TRY
IT! Activities. Each section is tailored to hone different skill
sets and enhance comprehension of the topics as follows:
Foundational Knowledge questions assess students' basic knowledge
gained from the textbook and highlight areas they need to review
Conceptual Integration questions prompt students to delve deeper
into the material and interrelate diverse information for
understanding, rather than memorization Clinical Application
questions explore the usefulness of the material provided in the
textbook to answer the common student query "How does speech and
voice science relate to the field of communication sciences and
disorders?" TRY IT! activities are designed to promote experiential
learning and allow students to explore concepts and acquire new
insights Key Features: *Over 1,000 questions are included on a wide
variety of topics *Informative answers are provided to over 45
questions on the 14 Clinical Cases presented in the textbook
*Numerous original figures and spectrograms are used to illustrate
questions, reinforce key concepts, and assess students'
understanding *A variety of question formats, including multiple
choice, true/false, fill-in, matching, figure identification,
drawing, and short answer *A focus on integrating knowledge for
deeper understanding *Spiral-bound format so students can easily
write in the workbook
Exercises for Voice Therapy, Third Edition contains eighty-four
exercises contributed from fifty-five clinicians to assist
speech-language pathologists in developing treatments plans and
session materials for clients-children and adults-with all types of
voice disorders. The exercises provide step-by-step instruction of
varied difficulty levels. Some are suitable for novice voice
clinicians, whereas others require a greater depth of experience to
be used most effectively. Similarly, voice clients will find some
exercises more challenging than others. Each chapter focuses on a
particular topic or parameter of the voice production system that
may need to be addressed. The exercises can be used in a variety of
ways, depending on the personal approach of each clinician and the
needs of the individual client. Some of the exercises offer a basic
framework for building an entire session, whereas others may
fulfill a more specific need within a broader framework. Each
exercise is presented in a consistent format for easy integration
into speech-language pathologists' therapy sessions. New to the
Third Edition: * 17 new exercises with 8 new contributors (for a
total of 84 exercises from 55 contributors). * A new chapter on
Counseling in Voice Therapy, containing four new exercises from
three new contributors who are experts in the field of counseling.
* A new chapter on Adherence and Generalization, addressing two
significant and common problems in voice therapy, including three
new exercises and a new contributor. * An enhanced chapter on
Pediatric Voice, including three new exercises and two new
contributors. * A reorganized chapter on Breathing, divided into
exercises that focus only on breathing and those that incorporate
voice production, to help the clinician select the most appropriate
exercises for a given client. * An expanded and reorganized chapter
on Special Cases, with chapter sections specifically targeting
transgender clients, paradoxical vocal fold motion, client voice
problems arising from motor speech disorders, as well as other
special populations. * A PluralPus companion website contains
supplemental audiovisual material that pairs with 28 of the
exercises. The recordings provide an aural model for those
exercises that may be difficult to interpret from the written text
alone.
