DESCRIPTION
This thoroughly revised and updated Fifth Edition is
the most comprehensive resource on aphasia and
related neurogenic communication disorders from
the most distinguished authorities of our time.
This classic text has been used by graduate speech
language pathology students for over 25 years, and
continues to be the definitive resource across the
speech sciences for aphasia.
The book describes a wide range of intervention
strategies including team treatment, group therapy,
approaches for bilingual and culturally diverse clients,
augmentative and alternative communication, and
computer-assisted interventions. An important
section addresses psychosocial/functional
approaches to intervention. New to this edition are
Activities for Discussion that encourage students to
reflect on what they just read.
