The analysis of the wealth of data collected in this study with an eye toward understanding not just statistical trends but individual differences makes a vital and unique contribution to the literature on language impairment. Contributors are among the most important, productive, and creative investigators in the field, and the volume will be an essential addition to the library of any serious scholar of child language. -Rhea Paul, Ph.D., Sacred Heart University This fantastic volume integrates findings from the seminal study of child language disorders. The work of Tomblin, Nippold and their colleagues has informed much of our theoretical thinking about language disorder, and has provided the evidence needed to shape policy and practice. A must read for anyone interested in the long term course and consequences of language impairment at school entry. -Courtenay Norbury, Ph.D., Royal Halloway, University of London This book is a masterful account of a 10-year, 'industrial-size' longitudinal study of children with SLI by a team of renowned scientists led by J. Bruce Tomblin. Its lucid analysis of theoretical issues, detailed description of methodological decisions, and synthesis of previously reported and new findings make it a comprehensive, current, and compelling resource for anyone interested in the trajectories and outcomes of spoken and written language development in school-age children - both those with SLI and those developing typically. -Christine Dollaghan, Ph.D., University of Texas at Dallas This volume represents the outcome of a seminal, population-based study of language development and impairment that has broad implications for understanding these disorders in school-aged children.
