Aphasia Rehabilitation: An Auditory and Verbal Task Hierarchy

This is a comprehensive clinician's manual for treatment of the aphasic adult. The two sections of the text separately cover auditory processing and verbal expression. Each section contains activities that are integrated into a task hierarchy. Stimulus material for all levels of aphasic involvement, from mild to severe, is contained within each task hierarchy. The text is self-contained; score sheets and all other necessary materials have been incorporated. Although written primarily for use with aphasic adults, this book also will be helpful in work with apractic and dysarthric patients and with those in need of cognitive reorganization therapy. Suggestions for specific application in these areas are included wherever appropriate.
