It presents a staged and clearly developed introducti on to the theory of pronunciati on combined with a wealth of transcripti on exercises and an accompanying CD.

Additi onally, a glossary provides students with a handy quick reference. The transcripti on exercises gui-de students from exploratory tasks to basic transcripti on to the more demanding transcripti on of natural dialogue, and all exercises are supplied with annotated soluti ons. The book is carefully divided into lessons and exercises which can be managed in 12 two-hour classes, leaving enough ti me for review and examinati on in a university term of 14 weeks or more. "a well structured and easy-to-follow introducti on to the basics of the theory of pronunciati on, accompanied by a carefully designed set of practi cal exercises and a step-by-step transcripti on course" (Snezhina Dimitrova, Linguist List)
