Examines how accents differ in 'voice quality' across languages and presents a new framework for its analysis with a revised model of lower-vocal-tract articulation, focusing on the larynx in speech. It will appeal to students and researchers in linguistics, phonetics, child language, speech science, clinical linguistics, and forensic phonetics.
