Description
The fifth edition of Language and Communication Disorders in Children is a major revision that focuses on the area of language to explain different kinds of developmental disabilities in children.
This fifth edition is a substantially revised introduction to the dynamic areas of speech-language pathology and special education. It focuses on the ways children learn language and the ways to help children who struggle with it. The authors present the material with the knowledge that the study of children's language and communication disorders will challenge students to apply theories of child development, speech and hearing science, and language development and disorders for the rewarding experience of providing language intervention to communicatively disordered children.
