Introduction to Communication Disorders explores the fields of speech-language pathology and audiology using an evidence-based lifespan perspective. It presents recent advances in the assessment and treatment of communication disorders in a highly readable manner. Each chapter is concise, yet comprehensive, striking a just-right balance of information appropriate for undergraduate-level students. You'll gain a foundation in the areas of anatomy and physiology of speech and hearing, and an overview of the various disorders that affect voice, fluency, articulation, language, cognition, swallowing and hearing across the lifespan.

The 7th Edition features a new case-based approach; hundreds of new sources; first-hand perspectives from speech-language pathologists and audiologists; and more.
