A comprehensive and engaging textbook, Voice Disorders, Fifth Edition offers students and practicing clinicians a contemporary, evidence-based understanding of the anatomical, physiological, and neurological foundations of voice production and the wide spectrum of voice disorders. This textbook covers essential topics such as respiratory and laryngeal anatomy, vocal pathology, evaluation techniques, therapy approaches, phonosurgery techniques, and management of special populations including singers and individuals with head and neck cancer. With new chapters on laryngeal reflexes and the immune system's impact on voice, as well as expanded coverage of gender-affirming voice care and the effects of pharmacology, this edition reflects the latest clinical research and practice.
This forward-looking text introduces significant updates and expansions that reflect the most current advancements in the field, ensuring students and clinicians have access to cutting-edge information on the evaluation and treatment of voice and upper airway disorders. Designed for graduate students in speech-language pathology and for clinicians seeking advanced training, this book bridges science and practice with clarity and depth. Richly illustrated with full-color anatomical drawings and clinical images, and supported by a robust companion website featuring digital laryngoscopic videos, surgical footage, case examples, and an interactive workbook, Voice Disorders equips readers to evaluate and manage voice disorders across the lifespan. Whether used in the classroom, clinic, or private practice, this authoritative text is an essential resource for anyone committed to excellence in voice care.
Sapienza and Hoffman's Voice Disorders, Fifth Edition continues its enduring legacy as the leading textbook for courses in voice disorders and an invaluable clinical reference.

Christine Sapienza, PhD, CCC-SLP, serves as Provost of Jacksonville University. Previously, Dr. Sapienza was a longstanding tenured professor and chair of the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at the University of Florida, as well as a research career scientist at the Brain Rehabilitation Research Center at the Malcom Randall Veterans Administration Hospital. As a principal investigator of National Institutes of Health grants, VA Research Rehabilitation Research and Development Awards, and a M.J. Fox Foundation grant, Dr. Sapienza has provided extensive mentoring to 16 doctoral students, all of whom have contributed back to academics and clinical service. She has built a strong national and international reputation for expertise in the design and implementation of larger scale randomized clinical trials examining treatments as well as the careful reporting of peer-reviewed outcomes from these studies. Dr. Sapienza methodically disseminates this information to the scientific community at large in the form of invited presentations, workshops, and clinical teaching platforms. Through writing, she works to integrate research findings in journal articles, textbooks, and clinical manuals. As a frequent contributor to patient support groups she aspires to assist patients and caregivers as they navigate available treatments and emerging science.
Bari Hoffman, PhD, CCC-SLP, is an Associate Dean in the College of Health Professions and Sciences, Professor in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders, with a joint appointment in Internal Medicine within the College of Medicine at the University of Central Florida. Dr. Hoffman serves as Director of the Center for Voice Care and Swallowing Disorders at the Ear Nose Throat and Plastic Surgery Associates. She has worked clinically in this setting for more than 20 years treating individuals with voice and upper airway disorders specializing in pediatric, professional, and neurogenic populations, along with individuals undergoing treatment for head and neck cancer. Dr. Hoffman received her doctoral degree from the University of Florida in 2001. Her current research involves studying novel treatment technologies and biomechanical mechanisms for disorders of laryngeal function, while defining the high impact on quality of life factors. She implements 3-D computer modeling of upper and lower airway function, coping strategies of individuals with dysphonia, and respiratory muscle strength paradigms in a variety of patient groups. Dr. Hoffman has a significant record of peer-reviewed publications, authorship of two other textbooks: Cases in head and Neck Cancer: A Multidisciplinary Approach and Respiratory Muscle Training. She actively lectures across the country and internationally on these topics. In recognition of her contributions to teaching, research, and service, she has received numerous awards within her university, state, and national associations.
