Rating: - Caution!
This is a really good book, but be careful. Don't buy the $33 version of this book (ISBN 0-395-90331-9). It ONLY includes the Book. Buy the $42 version of this book (ISBN 0-395-94540-2). That is the Package Edition, and includes both the Book and the Audiocassettes.
Rating: - Sue Miller is specifc and detailed
We've been working on a lot of material on voice and accent for Indian Call Centers dealing with the American market.
This appears to be the best book I have come across.
It is very detailed and easy to understand and beats the current book and CD offerings like American Accent training.
A definite must buy if you are into accent reduction for individuals or training.
