This text offers comprehensive coverage of a wide range of concepts related to articulation and phonology. The text’s strong, clinical emphasis along with the variety of helpful learning aids makes this text ideal for understanding critical topics.

In this comprehensive fourth edition of Articulatory and Phonological Impairments: A Clinical Focus, a range of topics are covered including, an overview of phonetic transcription and diacritics used to document disordered speech, several theoretical models, including newer nonlinear frameworks, phonological development, and relevant diagnostic and therapeutic suggestions for special populations discussed in detail. Additionally, the application of theoretical principles to practical examples creates a bridge for students between conceptual learning and the understanding of principles based on their application. These topics, coupled with the learning aids throughout the text, strengthen the conceptual framework and through application, demonstrate that the student has understood specific principles.

A large portion of the text is devoted to specific assessment and treatment details of articulatory and phonological disorders including a section on childhood apraxia of speech, cerebral palsy, cleft lip and palate, mental disability, hearing impairments, acquired dysarthrias, and apraxia of speech. These topics are encompassed in a clinical framework which continues to provide practical examples and the application of principles to real-life situations.

The third edition of Articulatory and Phonological Impairments provides students with a clinical framework that encompasses basic terms and concepts, phonetic transcription, and several theoretical perspectives that are applied to clinical examples throughout. Jacqueline Bauman-Waengler demonstrates a systematic transition from a knowledge based in clinical practice to the diagnosis and treatment of individuals with articulatory and phonological disorders. The text focuses on phonemic approaches to the diagnosis and treatment of motor-based disorders, replete with a thorough discussion of phonetic principles.

Highlights of the Third Edition:

Extensive revisions to Chapter 4, including additional analysis procedures that demonstrate the clinical applicability of distinctive feature theory and natural phonology.
A new section in Chapter 5 that offers new information and research on phonological awareness, emerging literacy,andphonological disorders.
Content on regional and ethnic dialects as well as English as a second language added to Chapter 6.
Learning objectives that encompass the key points of that chapter at thebeginning of each chapter to focus the student learning experience.
New learning aids, including case studies, websites, further readings, critical thinking activities, and test questions, at the end of each chapter.
