Description and Table of Contents

Description

This volume contains a reviewed selection of papers on the topics of speech production as it relates to motor control, brain processes and fluency disorders. It represents a collection of theoretical and experimental work, bringing otherwise widespread information together in a comprehensive way. Topics that are covered include models in speech production; motor control in speech production and fluency disorders; brain research in speech production; methods and measurements in pathological speech; and developmental aspects of speech production and fluency disorders. Scientists, clinicians and students as well as anybody interested in the field of speech motor production and fluency disorders, should find the information in this book useful for both research and teaching purposes.
