Better English Pronunciation

J.D. O'Connor

This is the second edition of a highly successful and widely-used text on pronunciation. It provides a systematic and thorough introduction to the pronunciation of English to help intermediate and more advanced students improve their production of the spoken language.

After a short introduction to pronunciation problems the author explians how the speech organs work; he then deals with each sound separately before dealing with words in combination, rhythm-patterns and intonation. Practice material is given at intervals throughout the book. The particular difficulties of the speakers of certain other languages are noted, and remedial exercises provided. A recording of all the practice material in the book is available on cassettes.

"...can quite safely be said to be the most effective [book] ever written to help the ordinary learner to improve his pronunciation.'

J.Windsor Lewis in The Times Educational Supplement
