It is ten years since Dodd and Campbell published a book with the title Hearing By Eye. That was the first volume that considered speechreading (lipreading as it was then called) as a psychological process of interest beyond its direct applications in hearing loss and deafness. It has remained the acknowledged title in its field. Since then, practical and theoretical research in this area has expanded hugely and the present volume outlines some of these developments. The book comprises fifteen invited chapters by leading international researchers in psychology, psycholinguistics, experimental and clinical speech science and computer engineering. It gives intriguing answers to theoretical questions (what are the mechanisms by which heard and seen speech combine?) and practical ones (what makes a good speechreader? Can machines be programmed to recognize seen, and seen-and-heard speech?) The book is written in a non-technical way and starts to articulate a behaviorally-based but cross-disciplinary program ofresearch in understanding how natural language can be delivered by different modalities.
