A lively, intelligent and persuasive history of speech...Expertly and patiently explained The TimesWhy are human beings the only animals that can speak? And why does it matter?If you ve ever felt the shock of listening to a recording of your own voice, you realise how important your voice is to your personal identity.

Trevor Cox talks to vocal coaches who help people to develop their new voice after a gender transition; to record producers whose use of technology has transformed the singing voice; and to computer scientists who replicate the human voice in their development of artificial intelligence.Beginning with the Neanderthals, Now You re Talking takes us all the way to the digital age with the frightening prospect that we may soon hear Unexpected item in the bagging area more frequently than a friendly Hello, how are you? in the street.
