　　本书是语音学的入门教材，不包括音系学理论的内容。书中的重点是发音语音学，同时也着重介绍了如何在探讨发音的过程中融人声学语音学和感知语音学方面的考察。本书在讲解中力图做到语言简单、直截了当，适合初学者学习，但在阅读过程中还会发现有些地方仍有些晦涩，需要仔细琢磨才行。对于只对英语语音有兴趣的读者来说，可以只学习1至5章，而对于研究语言比较、语言类型学的读者来说，需要学习本书的全部内容，以便获得更广泛的语音描述知识。　　本书是国际著名语音学大师PeterLadefoged教授撰写的语音学入门教材，重点介绍发音语音学，同时也着重介绍了如何在探讨发音的过程中入声学语音学和感知语音学方面的考察。本书自1975年初版面世以来，已历经4个版次的修订，成为使用最广、影响最大的语音学基础教材之一，此次出版的即为2006年最新修订版。书中的讲解力求简明扼要、直截了当，非常适合初学者学习。　　本书配有一张多媒体光盘，里面有使用本书所需的各种图表、录音、录像以及国际音标表中所有符号的发音。光盘里还包括本书的姊妹篇VowelsandConsonants一书的光盘内容，可供使用时参考。
