Speech and Language Rehabilitation - Fourth Edition

This fourth edition includes easy-to-find materials now arranged by language modality (listening, speaking, reading, and writing); length; and complexity. The authors extended the usage range of the workbook, supplying treatment materials to address clients with milder and more severe language impairments.

Clinicians will find the redrawn illustrations appropriate for both children and adults. Expanded and reorganized materials cover these areas: auditory comprehension, word finding, sentence structure, oral expression practice material, reading comprehension, writing/recognizing/naming, and spelling. Time concepts and aspects of arithmetic are also included in the supplementary section.

The authors revised the materials in response to requests from patients, families, and speech-language pathologists, incorporating materials used with patients receiving speech remediation at the Mayo Clinic and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center. Speech and Language Rehabilitation–Fourth Edition proves a valuable aid for the family to follow through with home practice material.

The workbook gives the client a ready reference for home study and provides a quick progress check. This book has been used extensively with individuals who experience language delays or neurological impairments, are in remedial reading classes or are in schools for the disabled, and learning English as a second language. Every professional in the fields of education and rehabilitation will find it to be a valuable addition to their present material.
