Dennis Tanner

The Psychology of Aphasia

A Practical Guide for Health Care Professionals

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Most of the literature on recovery from aphasia does not sufficiently address the overwhelming confusion and disorder that aphasia can cause in the patient, the communication partner, the communication between them, and their shared environment. The Psychology of Aphasia: A Practical Guide for Health Care Professionals fills this serious void.
