Abstract

Just as scientists must educate the general public through science communication, pronunciation researchers too should bridge the gap between research and practice (see Levis, 2016 for current review). This was why I chose to investigate pronunciation teaching in non-academic settings. I found this book on Amazon.com. It was the first item that showed up after I typed “accent reduction.” It has positive reviews although there are only sixteen reviewers. I purchased the Kindle version for $2.99 (which is a lot cheaper than the print version which is $34.79).
