Following the previous,
sixth edition, the book
Speech Motor Control in Normal and Disordered Speech: Future Developments in Theory and Methodology was published organized around the five major themes in the field: perception-action; speech development; speech disorders; modelling of speech; windows on the brain. Each chapter addresses a specific topic within one of these themes, and thereby not only gives an overview of the current state-of-the-art, but most importantly, highlights (and where necessary, speculates) how in the next decade research in these areas will influence our notions about speech motor processes and how this will have implications for future studies and/or clinical procedures.
