About the Book

Unique to the profession of speech-language pathology, the second edition of this book is an invaluable resource for clinicians, teachers, and university professors. This practical, easy-to-read text is ideal for speech-language pathologists, general and special educators, and others who serve children in poverty.

Updated technology recommendations (e.g.,
