OverviewThis textbook introduces the field of communication disorders to undergraduate students in speech-language pathology, audiology, special education, deaf education and other allied health professions. It is sufficiently broad in scope to offer the beginner student a clear, succinct understanding of the dynamics of communication and its disorders. Following an overview of the anatomy and physiology of the speech and hearing mechanisms, the text proceeds logically through specific areas of disordered speech, lanugage and hearing, integrating neurophysiological information with each chapter. While still maintaining a scientific orientation, the book avoids technical jargon and detailed treatment procedures. Study guides at the end of each chapter and case studies, charts, tables and photographs reinforce the subject matter in this intelligible introductory text. Full Product DetailsAuthor: M.N.
