Know about the book -

Perception and Production of Fluent Speech is written by Ronald A. Cole and published by Routledge. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 131727251X (ISBN 10) and 9781317272519 (ISBN 13).

Originally published in 1980, this title looks at the mental processes involved in producing and understanding spoken language. Although there had been several edited volumes on speech in the previous ten years, this volume was unique in that it deals exclusively with perception and production of fluent speech. The chapters in this volume, contributed to by distinguished scientists from psychology, linguistics and computer science, deal with such questions as: How are ideas encoded into sound? How does a speaker plan an utterance? How are words recognized? What is the role of knowledge in speech perception? In short, how do people communicate with each other using speech?
