Excerpt from The Science of Speech
In the present work an explanation is offered of all the actions of the mouth and the vocal organs which produce speech.
In the System of Visible Speech, the elements of languages are exhibited in symbols, which, to the initiated, are self-explanatory. That system may therefore be considered as a species of shorthand for the mechanism Of utterance, The present work describes the same elements, without symbols; the formation of the sounds being fully expressed in their nomenclature.
Some beginners are apt to be repelled at sight of unknown symbols, under the impression that the latter must be difficult to learn. But this idea soon gives way, before the lucidity and simplicity of the exponent symbols of Visible Speech.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book marks a major advance in the field of linguistics and can be considered a foundational text on the mechanics of speech. The author provides a complete scientific theory of speech, encompassing all the elements that combine to produce the sounds of human language. In this text, the author presents a refined theory of speech, first developed in an earlier work, to make the subject accessible to a wide range of readers. The scientific study of language, a field the author himself helped establish and advance, allows us to trace the evolution of language and decode the complex system that enables human speech. The author sought to create a companion text to his earlier work, Visible Speech, that would fully describe and explain the processes involved in speech. This book is the result and it achieves his goal, offering a detailed and systematic guide to the production of human speech sounds.
