Review:

...it is both encouraging and refreshing to discover that two decades of scientific advances and pedagogical progress have not diminished the book's uniqueness or importance...any professional voice studio or library will be seriously incomplete without this pre-eminent study. (Journal of Singing)

...Miller's study has been neither surpassed nor even challenged and is now reissued in a handsomer and more enduring edition. (CHOICE)

...brought it out again beautifully printed, handsomely bound and with a different title...of value (as always with this author) (David Lennox)
