Assessment of Communication Disorders in Children: Resources and Protocols
3rd Edition
by M.N. Hegde (Author)
Assessment
of Communication Disorders in Children: Resources and Protocols, Third
Edition offers a unique combination of scholarly information, invaluable
resources, and time-saving protocols on assessment of communication
disorders in children.
Most resource books offer limited research
and scholarly information, thus making them unsuitable as textbooks for
academic courses on assessment and diagnosis. Similarly, most
traditional textbooks do not include practical, easy-to-use, and
time-saving resources and protocols that the practicing clinicians can
readily use during assessment sessions. By combining the strengths of
traditional textbooks with newer assessment resources and protocols,
this one of a kind book offers a single, comprehensive source that is
suitable as a textbook and useful as a practical clinical resource.
