In this book, Frank Guenther offers a comprehensive, unified account of the neural computations underlying speech production, with an emphasis on speech motor control rather than linguistic content.
Treating Disordered Speech Motor Control
For example, the low F1 and F2 patterns for English /u/ can be produced with relatively more lip rounding (constriction and protrusion) and relatively less tongue-back raising, or vice versa (Atal, Chang, Mathews, and Tukey 1978).
"The book offers insights into the complex nature of speech motor control in both adults and children, and covers new developments in methodology, technology, and modeling.
