Improving Quality of Communication: Caring for All Voices

Of all creatures, humans use their voices most robustly. Communication can occur in many ways, but vocal communication is most refined in humans. We learn language starting in infancy, when we begin mimicking sounds and inflections, and then go on to make words and sentences. It is said that there is no more beautiful and complicated vocalization in nature than the human song. Our larynx, initially designed for airway protection, affords us the ability to express ourselves with voice, whispered, spoken, shouted, and sung.
