The ONE! Best!

This cassette accompanying the book is really useful. It covers some important things that the book doesn't have space for. It can be guaranteed that after a thorough study of the book and the cassette one can be a much better ESL teacher or student. You probably won't regret buying them. You would love to have them on your bookshelf as references and resources for many years.
Excellent Book!

I thought this book was fantastic!!! It has clear explanations of the sometimes complex and confusing facets of English pronunciation. It gives a lot of ideas on how to present phonology in an interesting, communicative, and meaningful way. It is one of the best books in the ESL field that I have ever read. The 17 appendices included in the book are very useful. I commend the authors and highly recommend this book to any teacher of pronunciation.
One of the best ESL books on the market
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is the best introduction to pronunciation for ESL teachers. It achieves a rare balance between theory and practice, and has enough class-ready material that it also serves as a good source book. Additionally, the references are as complete an introduction to the literature as one could hope for. This volume is really a goldmine for ESL instructors (I know, I am one!)
