The Handbook of Speech and Language Disorders presents a
comprehensive survey of the latest research in communication
disorders. Reflecting the rapid advances in the field, the
Handbook features in-depth coverage of the major disorders
of language and speech, including perception. Contributions from
leading experts explore current issues, landmark studies, and the
main topics and themes in the fields of communication sciences and
disorders, and include relevant information on analytical methods
and assessment. A series of foundational chapters covers a variety
of important general principles irrespective of specific disorders.
These chapters focus on such topics as classification, diversity

disorders.
With an extraordinary breadth and depth of coverage in the most
crucial aspects of this growing field, The Handbook of Speech
and Language Disorders is an invaluable guide for clinicians
and researchers, and a rich source of information for students in
speech-language pathology, linguistics, psychology and
education.
