This is a second edition of the highly popular volume used by
clinicians and students in the assessment and intervention of
aphasia. It provides both a theoretical and practical reference to
cognitive neuropsychological approaches for speech-language
pathologists and therapists working with people with aphasia.
Having evolved from the activity of a group of clinicians working
with aphasia, it interprets the theoretical literature as it
relates to aphasia, identifying available assessments and published
intervention studies, and draws together a complex literature for
the practicing clinician. The opening section of the book outlines
the cognitive neuropsychological approach, and explains how it can
be applied to assessment and interpretation of language processing
impairments. Part 2 describes the deficits which can arise from
impairments at different stages of language processing, and also
provides an accessible guide to the use of assessment tools in
identifying underlying impairments. The final part of the book
provides systematic summaries of therapies reported in the
literature, followed by a comprehensive synopsis of the current
themes and issues confronting clinicians when drawing on cognitive
neuropsychological theory in planning and evaluating intervention.
This new edition has been updated and expanded to include the
assessment and treatment of verbs as well as nouns, presenting
recently published assessments and intervention studies. It also
includes a principled discussion on how to conduct robust
evaluations of intervention within the clinical and research
settings. The book has been written by clinicians with hands-on
experience. Like its predecessor, it will remain an invaluable
resource for clinicians and students of speech-language pathology
and related disciplines, in working with people with aphasia.
