Sommario/riassunto

Emphasizes that a child's communication and language disorders can stem from neurological problems similar to those of aphasia, cognitive impairments, and others. This book provides a different perspective on speech and communication disorders, and is useful for speech therapists, developmental psychologists, and linguistics scholars.
