Publisher's Synopsis
"Diagnosis in Speech Language Pathology" is a book with a history dating from 1939. It has evolved largely at the University of Iowa, from a workbook dealing primarily with appraisal to one that concentrates on a model of diagnosis which is open-ended, leading to a continual search for better descriptors in arriving at an overview of communicative behaviour and strategies for changing it. The 19 authors are established teachers of speech-language pathology and audiology who have committed themselves to writing a reader-friendly textbook for the beginning speech-language diagnostician.;This book should be of interest to undergraduate students in speech-language therapy.
