From my Oral Interp. book, on American speech lecturer Dr. James Rush, M.D.:

"...and he went to great lengths to develop an appropriate vocabulary for that science. Indeed, much of his terminology became stadard among teachers of speech. He ALSO went to great lengths in the title of his book, published in 1827:

THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE HUMAN VOICE: Embracing its Physiological History: Together, with a System of Principles by Which Criticism in the Art of Elocution May be Rendered Intelligible, and Instruction, Definite and Comprehensive, to Which is Added a Brief Analysis of Song and Recitative.|

cuz ya know, ya couldn't have left any of that for the prologue or anything. Of course not.
