Multilingual Aspects of Speech Sound Disorders in Children explores
both multilingual and multicultural aspects of children with speech
sound disorders. The 30 chapters have been written by 44 authors
from 16 different countries about 112 languages and dialects. The
book is designed to translate research into clinical practice. It
is divided into three sections: (1) Foundations, (2) Multilingual
speech acquisition, (3) Speech-language pathology practice. An
introductory chapter discusses cross-linguistic and multilingual
aspects of speech sound disorders in children. Subsequent chapters
address speech sound acquisition, how the disorder manifests in
different languages, cultural contexts, and speakers, and addresses
diagnosis, assessment and intervention. The research chapters
synthesize available research across a wide range of languages. A
unique feature of this book are the chapters that translate
research into clinical practice. These chapters provide real-life
vignettes for specific geographical or linguistic contexts.

American architect Paul Rudolph (1918-1997) was internationally
known in the 1950s and early 1960s for his powerful, large-scale
concrete buildings. Hugely influential during his lifetime, Rudolph
was one of the most significant American architects of his
generation. To a remarkable extent, his reputation rose and fell
with the fortunes of postwar modernism in America. This insightful
book reconsiders Rudolph's architecture and the discipline's
assessment of his projects. It includes nearly a dozen essays by
well-known scholars in the fields of architectural and urban
history, all of which shed new light on Rudolph's theories and
practices. Contributions explore the architect's innovative use of
materials, including plywood, Plexiglas, and exposed concrete; the
places he lived and worked, from the Anglo-American axis to the
Bengal delta; his affiliation with CIAM (Congres Internationaux
d'Architecture Moderne); and currents within his philosophy of
architecture. Distributed for the Yale School of Architecture
