Author Description

This text outlines a practical process approach to the diagnosis and evaluation of speech and language disorders. Treating diagnosis and evaluation as processes occurring in the context of interpersonal clinician-client relationships, the book provides a foundation for the practice, developing a rationale for each type of assessment and profiling both standardized and non-standardized approaches. Case studies are used to illustrate the concepts described in the chapters. The authors are affiliated with Auburn University. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
