Inhaltsangabe

Children who fail to develop speech due to complex neurological conditions or learning disabilities may require augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). In this multidisciplinary book, the authors present current research and accepted good practice in AAC, and they discuss the neurology of speech and language and offer guidelines for assessment.
