An introduction to phonetics is designed to help EFL learners to achieve native-like pronunciation:
Chapter one deals with the history of phonology and phonetics and provides a brief overview of the impact of philosophy and psychology on the emergence of phonology and phonetics. Chapter two defined the notion of phoneme, describes IPA phonetic alphabet, and distinguishes between board and narrow transcriptions. Chapter three and four provide an in-depth account of traditional and systematic articulatory phonetics, respectively. Chapter five discusses the place of suprasegmentals in phonology. Chapter six seeks to explain phonemics. Chapter seven provides a brief introduction to the rudiments of acoustic or physical phonetics. Chapter eight introduces the reader to the notion of auditory phonetics

In (First Person)2, Day and Eodice offer one of the few book-length studies of co-authoring in academic fields since Lunsford and Ede published theirs over a decade ago. The central research here involves in-depth interviews with 10 successful academic collaborators from a range of disciplines and settings. The interviews explore the narratives of these informants' experience -- what brought them to collaborate, what cognitive and logistical processes were involved as they worked together, what is the status of collaborated work in their field, and so on -- and situate these informants within the broader discussion of collaboration theory and research as it has been articulated over the last 10 years
