About this title

Review

'I believe that this book will have an appeal for ... trainees and researchers who are trying to make sense of the complexities of feelings and emotions. ... the strength of this book lies within the authors' experiences of being able to summarise previous research. They add to the body of knowledge by challenging existing theories and thus providing food for thought.' Counselling and Psychotherapy Research

'... the collection of papers presented in the book gives a wide snapshot of some of the current ideas about language acquisition and disorders today, its considers a number of clinical implications which have followed from research findings and it sets the scene for further investigations and discussion in the field.' Journal of Child Language
