Riassunto

Combining a strong multicultural emphasis with an effective blend of research and practice, this introductory textbook is unique to the field of speech-pathology.

Language Disorders in Children, 1/e is written in an engaging and easy-to-read style and provides a valuable foundation for students with little to no background in language disorders. Unparalleled in the field for its emphasis on child language disorders through a culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) perspective, this text devotes several chapters exclusively to serving children from CLD backgrounds.

Strongly grounded in research with a focus on evidence-based practice, this text examines the full scope of language disorders in children, and offers several pedagogical devices within the text which help students interact with and learn the material.

Language Disorders in Children: A Multicultural and Case Perspective, 1/E

Celeste Roseberry-McKibbin, California State University, Sacramento

ISBN: 0205393403

Grounded in research with a focus on evidence-based practice, Language Disorders in Children addresses child language disorders from a culturally and linguistically diverse perspective. Unique to the field of speech-pathology, this first edition provides a valuable foundation for students with little-to-no background in language disorders.

The book presents current information with breadth and depth. I believe it will be extremely useful to the students of these introductory classes. The examples are good pedagogical devices.

-Vera Gutierrez-Clellen, San Diego State University

This book is an excellent reference for courses dealing with not only the identification of CLD students but also suggestions for therapeutic procedures. The pedagogical features and learning devices are excellent. There are enough case studies, charts, diagrams and expansion points that will be beneficial to the student learning as well as assisting the instructor in teaching the material. The case study examples are extremely useful and will be beneficial for use in the classroom.

-Janice M. Wright, Ohio University
