内容説明

This brings together the extensive but widely scattered research undertaken in this field in recent years. Written by specialists, it covers a range of exceptional circumstances including: extreme deprivation; twinship; visual and auditory impairments, autism and focal brain damage. The implications of the research for language development in unexceptional circumstances are also discussed. Other key features include: an introductory chapter on language development in normal children, a concluding chapter on implications for specific language impairments, and a glossary of specialist linguistic and medical terminology. The book assumes little specialist knowledge and should be of interest to speech therapists; speech pathologists; paediatricians; clinical and educational psychologists; and special education workers.
