- "This book is a fully updated edition of a work first published in 1986. It is intended as a comprehensive work on both current and historical phonetic transcription practice. It covers the phonetic symbol usages of such major traditions as the early Amerindianist work of the Boas school; the American structuralist phonetics and phonology associated with Bloch, Smith, and Trager; and the internationally known system of phonetic representation traditions and transcription principles associated with the International Phonetic Association (IPA). In addition it covers less well known traditions like those of Romance philologists, Germanicists, Slavicists, Indologists, Sinologists, Africanists, and so on, and includes entries for rare and obsolete symbols that have been suggested for use by respected specialists in phonetics but which will be unfamiliar to most linguists and speech scientists."
