Inhaltsangabe

Every Speech-Language Pathology student with an interest in working with stroke survivors should read The Family Guide to Surviving Stroke and Communication Disorders. What is provided is a common sense discussion of these disorders and ideas about what family members can do to help their loved ones. What sets this book apart from the others is the way information is presented. This book clearly describes the “big three” stroke related communication disorders ― aphasia, apraxia, dysarthrias ― and the important features of them. This is done by using non-technical terms, a short story, case studies, questions and answers, and examples. This is not a book of definitions and academic discussions; instead it is a comprehensive book for the families of stroke survivors. Speech-Language Pathology students will find it very insightful regarding the rehabilitation process and counseling needs of stroke survivors and their families.
