Overview

Now published by Plural, this modernized third edition of Language Disorders in Children: Fundamental Concepts of Assessment and Intervention, offers a comprehensive overview of language disorders in children for speech-language pathology students. The expert authors bring together decades of clinical experience and pedagogical expertise to create a comprehensive resource with instructional strategies and clinical applications, enhanced with numerous activities, discussions, and case studies that promote critical thinking.
