This is by far the most comprehensive and well-documented study there is anywhere of methods and implications of acoustic and phonetic analysis of speech, gunshots, tape authentication, and other evaluations that form a part of evidence for law enforcement and courtroom judgments.

The book's review of the growing field of forensic phonetics is an essential resource for speech and acoustics practitioners, lawyers, judges, and those guiding projects in forensic sciences that require scientific and probative acoustic information.
