商品簡介
Researchers and practitioners in speech and language and its pathology provide both theoretical overviews and experimental research into speech impairment in more than one language. They cover broad considerations, assessment and treatment, bilingual language phenomena, language pairs, and cultural context. The topics include neural plasticity and considerations for recovery in bilingual aphasia, the clinical management of anomia in bilingual speakers of Spanish and English, acquired dyslexia and dysgraphia in bilinguals across alphabetical and non-alphabetical scripts, a case study of a bi-dialectal (African-American vernacular English/standard American English) speaker with agrammatism, and contextual models of service delivery in aphasia.
