Manual of Aphasia and Aphasia Therapy
註釋Formerly Manual of Aphasia Therapy, this second edition is completely revised and updated. Aphasia and its treatment has undergone momentous changes which are refleted in this edition. Since the first edition was published, new technologies for analyzing the neuroanatomy of language have transformed the study of brain-language relations. To understand aphasia, one has to understand its neural basis. In a clinically relevant, straightforward manner, this text describes the neuroanatomical and neuropathologic bases and differential diagnosis of aphasia; neurologic, neuropsychologic, and language exams; the development of individualized treatment programs; the implementation of existing methods; and the neuropsychiatric, psychosocial, and legal aspects of aphasia. Completely rewritten chapters and new chapters carry this book into the new century by discussing in detail both functionally-motivated and high-tech approaches to assessment and rehabilitation of aphasia.
