Inhaltsangabe

Focusing on interventions, volume 2 of the Handbook of Central Auditory Processing Disorder, the companion to volume 1, reflects advances in neuroscience, and combines science and practice with case studies, while concentrating on multidisciplinary rehabilitation for the problem of central auditory processing disorder (CAPD), which is related to difficulties in language, learning, cognitive, and communication functions. Chermak and Musiek provide nine new chapters in their updated second edition and aim to contribute to greater patient-reported outcomes and to improve the life quality of patients and their families. Twenty-three chapters are divided into five sections: foundations; interventions; multidisciplinary perspectives on assessment and intervention across the spectrum of related disorders; case studies; and future directions.
