"Phonetic Data Analysis is one of the most useful
linguistics books written in the last 25 years. With his trademark
clarity of thought and expression, Peter Ladefoged has written a
book that is sure to be a classic. Every field linguist should own
a copy of this book. I plan to carry it with me and follow its
suggestions in all my future field research in the Amazon." Dan
Everett, University of Manchester
"Peter Ladefoged is widely acknowledged as the world's leading
phonetician. I warmly recommend this unique and remarkable new book
to students and professionals interested in phonetic fieldwork or
experimental phonetics. It is deeply practical and very easy to
understand; it is also full of illuminating personal experience
from a lifetime of investigating hundreds of languages in every
inhabited continent." John Laver, Queen Margaret University
College, Edinburgh
"This is a very useful and personal book. Peter Ladefoged brings us along for a phonetic field trip where serious research is always interspersed with the joy of getting to know one another. This book will show you how to make your own palatography mirrors (ask a mirror-maker for help!) and how doing phonetics really well can make for a fascinating life." Keith Johnson, Ohio State University
