Abstract:

The newly revised Introduction to Communication Disorders, Fourth Edition contains current and extensive information on both the science of communication and the profession of communicative disorders. It is an indispensable resource both for professors and students interested in this exciting interdisciplinary field. All chapters of this popular text have been revised. A new chapter on literacy skills in children and the role of the speech-language pathologists in literacy intervention has been added. The chapter on medical speech-language pathology now includes extended discussions of swallowing and its disorders, childhood apraxia of speech, and dementia. The chapter on language acquisition and disorders now includes school-age and older children in addition to preschool children. The single chapter of audiology and audiologic rehabilitation has now been increased to two chapters. Expanded information is provided on autism spectrum disorders and other special topics in speech-language pathology.
