"This book provides a comprehensive, well written overview of modern laryngology in language that remains accessible to an interdisciplinary readership. It would serve well as an updated reference for nearly any professional serving the voice needs of patients."

ABOUT THE BOOK
A thoroughly updated third edition of Diagnosis and Treatment of Voice Disorders serves as a definitive reference for professionals and students in the fields of otolaryngology, speech-language pathology, voice and singing, and related sciences. Each of the three units of the book: basic sciences, clinical assessment, and management, provides a wealth of current and relevant information on the science of communication processes and voice disorders. The multi-contributor approach to this book provides a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to the characteristics of voice disorders, diagnostic procedures and techniques, and treatment models. Over sixty contributors lend a hand in conveying the complexities of the science of the human voice. In the third edition, the contributors from the second edition provide readers with fully revised and updated chapters. Additionally, three new chapters are included: "Voice Horizons," "Cricoarytenoid & Cricothyroid Joint Injury: Evaluation and treatment," and "The Effects of Posture on the Voice."
