Description: This outstanding book emphasizes the physiological perspective of voice disorders - and the behavioral and emotional factors that can influence these changes. Students will find a strong foundation in normal phonatory physiology and acoustics as well as pathophysiology arising from misuse, abuse, or neurological involvement. New to this edition is an expanded section on stroboscopic examination, interpretation, and findings - an effective introduction to this increasingly important clinical technology.
