Gina L. Youmans, Ph.D. (Long Island University Brooklyn Campus), Doody's Review Service, (2010): "The authors have provided an excellent book with real-world, practical knowledge for students or clinicians who have yet to experience hands-on practice with individuals with neurogenic language disorders. They do this fairly succinctly, without discussing any one disorder in depth, but rather fleshing out each case example and providing clear rationales and guidance for therapy planning." Deborah Kotelnicki Martin, CCC-SLP, Advance for Speech-Language Pathologists and Audiologists, (November 2010): "I wish I had this book 25 years ago! "Acquired Language Disorders: A Case-Based Approach" is an excellent pragmatic text that now occupies a prominent place on my bookshelf. The authors combine their professional knowledge of acquired language disorders in an accessible textbook formatted with short paragraphs, easily referenced bulleted text, clear illustrations, and comparative diagrams and tables. While the material is presented in a simplified format, the breadth of information is not compromised. I highly recommend this text to speech-language pathologists new to diagnosing and treating acquired language disorders as well as to seasoned professionals mentoring new clinicians. The text is accessible, pragmatic and well organized. The case study format is used to its fullest potential to provide a visual and functional reference of the clinical impact of these disorders and subsequent management."
