Review:
The book is generally the most comprehensive book on aphasia on the market, yet it is largely readable....the book brings together contributions of the various fields of speech pathology, neurology, psychology, and neurolinguistics, such that specialists in each of these fields can benefit from the viewpoints of the others. Overall, the book is a must for the library of anyone interested in the study of aphasia or the treatment of aphasic patients, whether the reader is a physician, speech/language pathologist, psychologist, or linguist.
--Howard S Kirshner, M.D., Professor and Vice Chair, Neurology, Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee.
This is a comprehensive and well-organized sampling of updated topics with excellent contributors. Those who found the first edition useful, will want the revision for their library, along with other clinicians and researchers who want a reliable, practical text, as well as a summary of recent advances.
