Reviews

From the reviews: This book explores the neuropsychological aspects of language with a particular focus on these indirect aspects. This book will be a useful tool for neuropsychologists, psychologists, and general practitioners in daily practice. The chapters are generally concise, but well organized and easy to understand. the references are very current and represent modern understanding of communication. Readers will get a good return on the time they invest in this book. (Christopher J. Graver, Doody s Review Service, December, 2010)
