Description
Benninger and Murry compile 25 chapters on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of voice disorders relating mostly to actors and singers, but with some attention to instrumentalist/singers, voiceover artists, dancer/singers, and others. Pharmacological treatment and side effects, and behavioral therapies are discussed, as well as surgical treatment and building a professional voice practice. Contributing authors, based around the world, are otolaryngologists, speech- language pathologists, psychologists, singing voice specialists, and teachers, many of who have been or are performers.
