Professional Voice: The Science and Art of Clinical Care

The most comprehensive reference on voice care and science ever published!

Substantially revised and updated since the previous edition published in 2005, Professional Voice: The Science and Art of Clinical Care, Fourth Edition provides the latest advances in the field of voice care and science. In three volumes, it covers basic science, clinical assessment, nonsurgical treatments, and surgical management. Twenty new chapters have been added. These include an in-depth chapter on pediatric voice disorders, chapters detailing how hormonal contraception, autoimmune disorders, and thyroid disorders affect the voice, as well as chapters on the evolution of technology in the voice care field, and advances in imaging of the voice production system.

The appendices also have been updated. They include a summary of the phonetic alphabet in five languages, clinical history and examination forms, a special history form translated into 15 languages, sample reports from a clinical voice evaluation, voice therapy exercise lists, and others. The multidisciplinary glossary remains an invaluable resource.

Reviews

"Professional Voice: The Science and Art of Clinical Care (4th ed) represents Robert Sataloff's updated version of one of the most comprehensive laryngology references published to date. The fourth edition's offering of 120 chapters represents a significant leap from the first edition's 33 and even from the third edition's 100. This 3-volume text has been meaningfully expanded in a manner that reflects the evolution of laryngology and the voice sciences as a specialty over time. The text conveys the "great progress that has been made toward understanding the function, dysfunction, and treatment of the human voice" as achieved through the collaboration of physicians, voice scientists, speech-language pathologists, as well as those from the performing arts arena. In his preface, Dr. Sataloff highlights, chapter by chapter, exactly what content has been revised or supplemented and points out the intent and considerations behind the brand new chapters. Some of the topics covered by the newest chapters worth mentioning include pediatric voice disorders, high-speed digital imaging, magnetic resonance imaging, vocal effects of thyroid disease, hormonal contraception, and cough. The plethora of updated and new content is still organized into 3 volumes, Basic Science and Clinical Assessments, Non-Surgical Management, and Surgical Management and Special Considerations. Most chapters are accompanied by high-quality illustrations and photographs. The images and illustrations within the surgical chapters offer especially elegant depictions of both common and uncommon procedures. Readers can be certain that this reference text comprehensively covers all aspects of laryngology, voice science, and care for the professional voice. The meaningful updates and additions to this fourth edition of Professional Voice: The Science and Art of Clinical Care secure its significance to the present and future of the specialty."
—Michael Z. Lerner, MD, Bronx, New York, USA, in the Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, Vol. 127(6) 414-415 (2018)

"The first volume contains comprehensive chapters on basic science and clinical assessment, including using latest technology. The second volume covers the non-surgical management of voice disorders and the third volume contains excellent chapters in surgical management of laryngeal disorders. Furthermore, the third volume contains useful chapters on medico-legal aspects, forensics, nursing considerations, teamwork in the management of voice-related disorders. It is evident that the author and Chief Editor, Robert Thayer Sataloff, has intentionally kept the narrative similar throughout and this makes it easier to read and navigate through the book. The book is well-illustrated and is available in both print and electronic formats.
As an otolaryngologist and head and neck surgeon, this book has provided me with greater knowledge and insight into the field of laryngology and my patients will certainly benefit as a result. It is a leading and comprehensive reference book in the field of laryngology and I would recommend it to anyone that is involved in dealing with patients that have voice-related disorders. I will also be recommending it to my hospital library."
