Review

"I love this book, and I know several colleagues who will read it hungrily when it is available to them. The book has already been of assistance to me in a case consultation. Dr. Goldsworthy's assessment model is very comprehensive; I was assisted in formulating hypotheses about the child and able to ask questions that generated some "ahas" from the clinician." -- Audrey Weston, Ph.D., Idaho State University

"This is the most complete resource I've seen." "I am in awe of this completeness and comprehensiveness of this manuscript. It will be a treasured resource for me." -- Henriette le Grand, MA, CCC/SLP, University of Florida

"I think this is a fantastic resource for students and professionals." "I have found this manuscript to be extremely valuable for a few reasons. The first is that the author has tied together research from a number of related fields...I also am impressed with the author's thoroughness and practicality." -- Catherine J. Steegmann, TSHH, CCC-A
