"""Lodge uses his practical classroom experience to provide safe guidance, and his theoretical perspective to provide a phonetically more accurate non-segmental foundation to phonetics. I particularly like the extensive introductions to continuous speech, prosody, resonance and segmentation, which will be of interest to phonologists and more advanced students of phonetics as well as beginners"" - Professor James M. Scobbie, Speech Science Research Centre, Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh, UK. ‘An eye-opener for those who have not considered the medium and long-term effects produced by articulators of different sizes and shapes moving at different speeds and with different constraints while producing a so-called string of speech sounds' The Journal of International Phonetic Association, 2010 Make[s] for interesting reading, as [it] combine[s] excellent coverage of the basic issues with the author's... theoretical perspective. A Critical Introduction to Phonetics not only offers a thorough treatment of such aspects as articulation, transcription, and acoustics, but also stresses the fundamentally continuous nature of the speech stream. -- The Year's Work in English Studies, Volume 90"
