The acquisition of language is one of the most remarkable human
achievements. When language acquisition fails to occur as expected,
the impact can be far-reaching, affecting all aspects of the
child's life and the child's family. Thus, research into the
nature, causes, and remediation of children's language disorders
provides important insights into the nature of language acquisition
and its underlying bases and leads to innovative clinical
approaches to these disorders. This second edition of the Handbook
of Child Language Disorders brings together a distinguished group
of clinical and academic researchers who present novel perspectives
on researching the nature of language disorders in children. The
handbook is divided into five sections: Typology; Bases; Language
Contexts; Deficits, Assessment, and Intervention; and Research
Methods. Topics addressed include autism, specific language
impairment, dyslexia, hearing impairment, and genetic syndromes and
their deficits, along with introductions to genetics, speech
production and perception, neurobiology, linguistics, cognitive
science, and research methods. With its global context, this
handbook also includes studies concerning children acquiring more
than one language and variations within and across languages.
Thoroughly revised, this edition offers state-of-the-art
information in child language disorders together in a single volume
for advanced undergraduate students and graduate students. It will
also serve as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners
in speech-language pathology, audiology, special education, and
neuropsychology, as well as for individuals interested in any
aspect of language acquisition and its disorders.
