The book features: ? 330 short-answer questions to help students to develop knowledge of the causes and features of communication disorders ? 60 data analysis exercises to give students practice in analysing clinical linguistic data ? Full answers to the exercises, saving the lecturer time in devising responses, and allowing students to use the responses to test their own knowledge and understanding ? A detailed glossary of terms, avoiding the need to consult other sources for explanations and making the text self-contained ? Suggestions for further reading for each chapter.
