"This is a wonderful book - one we have all been waiting for,perhaps without knowing it, and one that will make us wonder how weever did without it. I look forward to recommending it to anyoneundertaking an instrumental phonetic investigation." NinaGrønnum, University of Copenhagen
"Phonetic Data Analysis is one of the most usefullinguistics books written in the last 25 years. With his trademarkclarity of thought and expression, Peter Ladefoged has written abook that is sure to be a classic. Every field linguist should owna copy of this book. I plan to carry it with me and follow itssuggestions in all my future field research in the Amazon." DanEverett, University of Manchester
"Peter Ladefoged is widely acknowledged as the world's leadingphonetician. I warmly recommend this unique and remarkable new bookto students and professionals interested in phonetic fieldwork orexperimental phonetics. It is deeply practical and very easy tounderstand; it is also full of illuminating personal experiencefrom a lifetime of investigating hundreds of languages in everyinhabited continent." John Laver, Queen Margaret UniversityCollege, Edinburgh
"This is a very useful and personal book. Peter Ladefoged bringsus along for a phonetic field trip where serious research is alwaysinterspersed with the joy of getting to know one another. This bookwill show you how to make your own palatography mirrors (ask amirror-maker for help!) and how doing phonetics really well canmake for a fascinating life." Keith Johnson, Ohio StateUniversity
