A voice is much more than just a string of words. Voices, unlike fingerprints, are inherently complex. Forensic Speaker Identification explains what FSI involves, and clarifies the problems of inferring identity from speech under the less than ideal conditions typical in forensics. This book has been written for forensic scientists, the legal profession and law enforcement officers. It's accessible to those with no previous knowledge of FSI, or of phonetics or acoustics. It can also be used as a base for teaching tertiary level courses in aspects of phonetics. This practical, lucid text takes the reader through all the underpinning knowledge necessary, and will bring much needed clarity to an important technique.
