Speech Science was one of the first classes I took in pursuit of my pre-requisites needed to apply to grad school to become a SLP. My professor used the Introduction to Speech Science as one of our texts. I found the book to give clear and insightful explanations to the science of speech. The diagrams and descriptions were very helpful in doing our own self-evaluation of the differences between vowels/consonants etc. Overall, I feel that this text offers a great introduction on the topic.
