Our Professor Louise Cummings has published a new book related to research in speech-language pathology.
The book features case studies of ten individuals with acquired neurological disorders that have implications for speech, language, and communication. With a brief medical overview of each condition, Prof. Cummings presents each disorder's clinical presentation and language and communication features. The detailed linguistic analysis on the carefully assembled narrative captures the impact of each neurological disorder on an individual's daily life and social activities. It further reveals the complex interrelationship between language, communication, and cognitive and motor symptoms.
The book will be of interest to students of all levels, researchers, and clinicians in speech-language pathology and related disciplines, including neurology, psychiatry, and psychology. Click here for more details.
