A book written for professional voice users that explains the mechanics of voice production, the care of the voice, and common medical conditions that can affect voice users.

ALL professional voice users - whether singers and actors, teachers, lawyers, sports coaches, television hosts, salesmen, or business executives - depend on their voices in their profession.

This book is an informational source for professional voice users on how to care for and maintain the longevity of their voice. The authors are doctors and nurses whose medical practice specializes in the care of voice professionals. This is not a book on vocal pedagogy or training, but rather a guide to common medical problems that can affect the voice and to common vocal difficulties that can develop from ineffective voice use.
