Management of Motor Speech Disorders in Children and Adults emphasizes how to make clinical decisions based on the underlying neuropathology and severity of the disorder. The third edition of this must-have book covers basic neurologic and general information associated with the various diseases, disorders, and syndromes that cause motor speech disorders, and it is an excellent reference for those practicing in a medical setting. This text contains several noteworthy modi?cations:

• A DVD with 26 video segments showing children and adults with dysarthria and apraxia of speech engaged in a range of speaking tasks.

• Content from the eight recently published practice guidelines developed by the Academy of Neurologic Communication Disorders and Sciences (ANCDS) for the motor speech disorders field.

• Terminology and concepts of the International Classification of Function, Disability and Health (ICF) model.

• A new chapter 13 that lists conditions associated with motor speech disorders and summarizes the medical aspects and speech characteristics of various conditions.

The complete kit includes a book and video segments on DVD.
