The goal of this book is to show how the role of the speech-language pathologist has changed; what clinical intervention techniques are successfully being used today with children with different developmental disabilities; and what policies and procedures affect clinical practice. Language Disorders in Children introduces three families whose stories exemplify the challenges faced by families whose children have disabilities. Three developmental disabilities--autism, speech-language impairment, and hearing loss--are chosen as examples to highlight present-day language theories and clinical practices.

Combining the expertise of a variety of contributors, this comprehensive yet readable book utilizes a non-categorical approach in discussing developmental disabilities in children. Children with language and communication disorders are often misdiagnosed and misunderstood due to the assignment of educational labels that reflect their different handicapping conditions, i.e. mental retardation, hearing impairment, and autism. This book utilizes a common unifying theoretical framework to understand and discuss this population. For professionals working in the fields of audiology, speech-language pathology, and deaf education.

This fifth edition is a substantially revised introduction to the dynamic areas of speech-language pathology and special education.
