It is vital to have knowledge of the neuroanatomical structures and functional neurological mechanisms which are disrupted in neurogenic speechlanguage disordered persons in order to understand the speechlanguage deficits themselves This book provides a comprehensive coverage of the neurological basis of both the clinically recognised forms of aphasia and the various motor speech disorders in both children and adults It also covers more recently recognised language disorders such as Parkinsons and related diseases right hemisphere damage closedhead injury dementia etc This is a perfect text for practitioners who need to understand the integration of neuroanatomy and functional neurology with the practice of speechlanguage pathology.

The leading dictionary/sourcebook of terms for speech, language, and hearing pathology, Terminology of Communication Disorders is intended for students in speech, language, and hearing disorders programs, faculty, and practitioners. Terms are listed alphabetically and cross-referenced for synonyms and related terms, accommodating the sometimes complex classifications of Speech, Language, and Hearing disorders. Language And Motor Speech Disorders In Adults, Third Edition Provides An Overview Of The Major Neurogenically Caused Speech And Language Disorders In Adults.

An Interactive TAWAT Program Is Available Through The Companion Website. Instructor Resources: Instructor\'s Manual With Sample Syllabus, Powerpoint Presentations, And A Test Bank This new graduate level textbook, Cognition and Acquired Language Disorders: An Information Processing Approach, addresses the cognitive aspects of language and communication. It assembles the most recent information on this topic, addressing normal cognitive processing for language in adults, the cognitive impairments underlying language disorders arising from a variety of neurologic conditions, and current assessment and treatment strategies for the management of these disorders. The text is organized using an information processing approach to acquired language disorders, and thus can be set apart from texts that rely upon a more traditional, syndrome-based approach (e.g., stroke, dementia, and traumatic brain injury). This approach facilitates the description and treatment of acquired language disorders across many neurologic groups when particular cognitive deficits are identified. Other useful features of the text include assessment and treatment protocols that are based on current evidence. These protocols provide students and clinicians a ready clinical resource for managing language disorders due to deficits in attention, memory, linguistic operations, and executive functions.Unique process-oriented approach organizes content by cognitive processes instead of by syndromes so you can apply the information and treatment approaches to any one of many neurologic groups with the same cognitive deficit.Cognitive domains are described as they relate to communication rather than separated as they are in many other publications where they are treated as independent behaviors.A separate section on normal processing includes five chapters providing a strong foundation for understanding the factors that contribute to disordered communication and its management.The evidence-based approach promotes best practices for the most effective management of patients with cognitive-communication disorders.Coverage of the cognitive aspects of communication helps you meet the standards for certification in speech-language pathology.A strong author team includes two lead authors who are well known and highly respected in the academic community, along with expert contributors, ensuring a comprehensive, advanced clinical text/reference. It is vital to have knowledge of the neuroanatomical structures and functional neurological mechanisms, which are disrupted in neurogenic speech/language, disordered persons in order to understand the speech/language deficits themselves. This book provides a comprehensive coverage of the neurological basis of both the clinically recognised forms of aphasia and the various motor speech disorders, in both children and adults. It also covers more recently recognised language disorders, such as Parkinsons and related diseases, right hemisphere damage, closed-head injury, dementia, etc. This is a perfect text for practitioners who need to understand the integration of neuroanatomy and functional neurology with the practice of speech-language pathology. Acquired Language Disorders: A Case-Based Approach, now in its second edition, is a practical, easy-to-follow, informative guide for students and clinicians. The authors present each case from a holistic perspective, encouraging clinicians to consider executive functions, attention, memory, and visuospatial skills of the person with aphasia during the assessment process and throughout treatment.. This edition begins with a review of the basics of brain- behavior relationships and pertinent medical terminology for treating individuals who have a neurological impairment. Each disorder is then introduced in a case-based format with a Target ModelT that includes a diagnostic profile along with treatment considerations and a functional analysis of the case.. New to the second edition: . Current therapeutic information and strategies with a review of recent research pertaining to individuals with acquired language disorders and individuals with cognitive communication deficits secondary to mild brain injury Resources for cognitive assessments of people with aphasia, and new directions and interventions for patients with dementia Twenty-three treatment programs including 11 new approaches-such as Speech Entrainment A Program for Phonological Alexia/Agraphia Oral Reading for Language in Aphasia with Virtual Therapist (ORLA-VT) and more Discussion of innovative approaches for treating aphasia- such as Repeated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) Anodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (A-tDCS) and Cathodal Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (C-tDCS) A Test Your Knowledge section with questions based on 10 patient scenarios that instructors can also use as a professional discussion tool Color inserts and a Quick Reference Diagnostic Chart for Acquired Language Disorders (ALD) that addresses and provides diagnostic information for the major nonfluent and fluent aphasias as well as other ALDs.
