Good introduction to various speech processing techniques. Attempts were made to cover very broad areas such as speech synthesis, coding, and recognition; which obviously cannot be done in a single volume. The serious readers looking to specialize in any of the mentioned areas must find other sources for more thorough info. Also note that many materials in the book are already outdated due to rapid technological advances.

This is the book to have on your shelf if you are a serious about speech processing. The authors give a through treatment to the fundamental issues involved in speech processing. This outstanding work of two leaders in DSP and Speech processing, will help you to get started with the fascinating subject of speech processing. The issues covered in the book are still relevant today as it was back in 1970's. Though a bit dated this work is a classic.

I am currently doing research for a speech processing project, and as I went through a good number of books, I was not able to find a more complete and technical source as Digital Processing of Speech Signals. In my opinion, the book has a perfect combination of theory and practice when presenting both time-domain and frequency-domain algorithms for speech analysis and synthesis. I originally borrowed this book from a library, but now I am getting my own. It is a must-have classic!

I purchase this book back in 1979. Though I have purchased other newer books about processing digitized speech I always find myself going back to this book as a reference. No other engineering book does as good a job of describing characteristics of the speech signal.

I am an Engineering student and doing a project in speech recognition. This book not only helped me in this project but also improved my knowledge on this subject.

It is a bit to technical, but still goes a long way to improve your knowledge on the subject.

The book is what the seller said it would be and in a good shape, delivered on time
