Speech Production and Speech Modelling

Speech Production and Speech Modelling edited by W.J. Hardcastle, Alain Marchal.

Speech sound production is one of the most complex human activities: it is also one of the least well understood. This is perhaps not altogether surprising as many of the complex neurological and physiological processes involved in the generation and execution of a speech utterance remain relatively...
