Description
This Is the Voice by John Colapinto explores the human voice as the most efficient and effective means of communication ever devised. From its origins in lungfish millions of years ago to its culmination in the talent of exceptional speakers, Colapinto guides us through the complexities of speech.
The book delves into the intricacies of language, music, and the human experience, taking readers on a journey from the online marketplaces rainforest to Harvard University. Along the way, it reveals why speech is the single most complex activity humans can perform and how our unique sonic signature reflects our individuality.
