Why has the female voice deepened over the last fifty years? Who talks more, men or women? How can a baby in the womb distinguish between different voices? The human voice is the personal and social glue that binds us, and the most important sound in our lives. The moment we open our mouth we leak information about our biological, psychological and social status. Babies use it to establish emotional ties and acquire language, adults to decode mood and meaning in intimate and professional relationships. Far from being rendered redundant by modern technology, the human voice has enormous and enduring significance.
One of the only books available on the subject of the Human Voice. I loved it for the amount of research that went into it and the previously unknown knowledge of something as intimate as our voices. I recommend this book to anyone who is curious about the impact, influence, creation, and development of our voices.
