Stuttering: Foundations and Clinical Applications, Third Edition presents a comprehensive overview of the science and treatment of stuttering in a single text. The book offers a unique level of coverage of the stuttering population, the disorder\'s features, and the therapies offered for different ages. Written for both undergraduate and graduate level audiences, the authors guide students to critically appraise different viewpoints about the nature of stuttering, understand the disorder\'s complexities, and learn about the major clinical approaches and therapies appropriate for different age groups-- Stuttering: Foundations and Clinical Applications, 2/e has been considered the most comprehensive, complete presentation of the science and treatment of stuttering available in a single text--how stuttering is explained, and how stuttering is treated. The text is unique in its coverage of the stuttering population, its in-depth look at stuttering therapy at various ages, and its original approach that invites students to offer critical appraisals of differing theoretical viewpoints. The new Second Edition has been revamped editorially to ensure ease of readability. It highlights sections with the latest scientific knowledge of stuttering regarding incidence and prevalence, onset natural recovery, and genetics includes completely revised sections on brain anatomy and physiology, motor aspects, and cluttering and updates the material with new case studies, tables and figures, and a new outline format for treatment procedures.

The Second Edition examines the biological, developmental, and environmental systems of neurotypical children, and the role of these systems as linguistic input in the child\'s environment contributing to language development. This comprehensive resource, written and contributed by over 20 experts in the field, provides students with an understanding of the foundations of language development in terms of each individual child\'s communication needs. With case studies woven throughout the text, students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing signs of problems. These cases and clinical practice applications will help students prepare for the clinical challenges they will face in their professional careers. Every year, new information, new theories, and new evidence are published about development to explain the complexities that create and facilitate the language acquisition process. The authors who have contributed to this text provide the latest research and perspectives on language development among neurotypical children. This valuable text bridges biological, environmental, technological, and professional venues to advance the development of professionals and children alike.

Language Development: Foundations, Processes, and Clinical Applications coalesces the necessary knowledge of language development with evidence and clinical practice. Contributed by experts in the field, the Third Edition provides the student with specific clinical applications using skill-based information related to assessment and intervention. Featuring a chapter dedicated solely to the comprehension of language, this edition also covers language development from unique perspectives, such as multicultural/lingual home, international adoption, the child with cochlear implants and other sensory devices, and the child with multiple disabilities. With Case Studies and new Clinical Application exercises woven throughout the text, students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing atypical development.
