The addition of world-renowned coauthor, Nelson Roy, brings this fifth edition even more valuable experience in clinical voice disorders research. Whether a typical voice user, occuapational voice user, elite vocal performer, head and neck cancer client, or an individual who has lost the ability to communicate competently and confidently due to a detrimental voice change, each patient presents a unique diagnostic dilemma: how best to return the voice to its optimal condition? This text thoroughly answers this question through explaining and illustrating the knowledge necessary to treat and manage voice disorders. -- from back cover ER -
