Critics Review

“No previous book on human speech has even tried to cover the fall domain from speaker as message formulator and participant in dialogue to speaker as monitor of his or her own articulations. Pim Levelt has not only attempted this herculean task but has actually succeeded in advancing an explicit model of speech production in its totality.

Marshall , The Radcliffe Infirmary, Oxford “Required reading for anyone working in the field. ” Joseph Paul Sternberger, Contemporary Psychology
