In Memoriam
William A. Ainsworth 1941–2002
This book is dedicated to the memory of Bill Ainsworth, who unexpectedly passed away shortly before this book’s completion. He was an extraordinarily gifted scientist who pioneered many areas of speech research relating to perception, production, recognition, and synthesis. Bill was also an exceptionally warm and friendly colleague who touched the lives of many in the speech community. He will be sorely missed.
