This wide-ranging survey of the state of the art in clinical
pragmatics includes an examination of pragmatic disorders in
previously neglected populations such as juvenile offenders,
children and adults with emotional and behavioural disorders, and
adults with non-Alzheimer dementias. This book makes a significant
contribution to the discussion of pragmatic disorders by exploring
topics which have a fast-rising profile in the field. These topics
include disorders in which there are both pragmatic and cognitive
components, and studies of the complex impacts of pragmatic
disorders such as mental health problems, educational disadvantage
and social exclusion. This book also presents a critical evaluation
of our current state of knowledge of pragmatic disorders. The
author focuses on the lack of integration between theoretical and
clinical branches of pragmatics and argues that the work of
clinicians is all too often inadequately informed by theoretical
frameworks. She attempts to bridge these gaps by pursuing a closer
alliance of clinical and theoretical branches of pragmatics. It is
claimed that this alliance represents the most promising route for
the future development of the field. At once a yardstick measuring
progress thus far in clinical pragmatics, and also a roadmap for
future research development, this single-author volume defines
where we have reached in the field, as well as where we have to go
next.
