The Oxford Handbook of Laboratory Phonology aims to serve as a guide to the philosophy, workings and findings of the laboratory phonology approach. It achieves this goal by bringing together leaders in the field to provide state-of-the-art reviews of how laboratory phonology has influenced research in their specialist areas ... the breadth of coverage and the depth of knowledge are clear strengths of the book ... It is a good starting point for any researcher who needs an update on the specific research questions covered. * Phoebe M. S. Lin, Linguist List *
A real strength of the handbook is its breadth of topics and its ability to weave a cohesive volume from such an interdisciplinary angle. * Journal of Sociolinguistics *
