A definitive textbook for students in speech-language pathology, audiology, and communication sciences and disorders, Principles and Practices in Augmentative and Alternative Communication offers students an introduction to augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) and prepares them for working with clients with complex communication needs.
Editors Drs. Donald R. Fuller and Lyle L. Lloyd and their contributors provide a foundation for the development of assessment and intervention procedures and practices within the framework of the communication model and its major components: the means to represent, the means to select, and the means to transmit.
Principles and Practices in Augmentative and Alternative Communication consists of five major units:
- An introduction to AAC, from its history to current practice
- An overview of AAC symbols and a comprehensive discussion of aided and unaided symbols
- A review of AAC technology
- The components of AAC assessment: principles, vocabulary, symbol selection, and the prescription of AAC technology
- AAC intervention: everything from the components of the intervention process to examples from specific cases and settings
Included with the text are online supplemental materials for faculty use in the classroom.
Students and professionals looking for a foundational textbook in the field of AAC will find Principles and Practices in Augmentative and Alternative Communication to be effective, contemporary, and practical.

About the Author
Dr. Donald R. Fuller is professor and chair of the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Education and Master of Speech Pathology degrees from Arkansas State University and his doctoral degree at Purdue University, where Dr. Lloyd was his major professor and mentor. During his career in higher education, Dr. Fuller assisted in creating a master’s degree program in speech-language pathology at Florida International University and was founding chair of the Department of Speech- Language Pathology at Misericordia University. Although Dr. Fuller’s passion lies in administration in higher education, he has maintained his interest in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), publishing several articles and making numerous presentations, primarily involving the iconicity and complexity of aided symbols and theoretical issues in the discipline. He coauthored the 1997 textbook, Augmentative and Alternative Communication: A Handbook of Principles and Practices with Dr. Lloyd and Helen Arvidson. Dr. Fuller was elected a fellow of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association in 1998.
Dr. Lyle L. Lloyd is considered by some to be a father of AAC. His accomplishments in this discipline are detailed in the In Memoriam section of this book. Upon reading the memorial, one will gain considerable understanding of why he is held in such high esteem by the AAC community. Dr. Lloyd earned his Bachelor of Science degree from Eastern Illinois University, his Master of Arts degree from the University of Illinois, and his doctoral degree from the University of Iowa. Dually certified as an audiologist and speech-language pathologist, he served the early part of his career as a clinician and researcher, especially in the area of intellectual disability. His proclivity for research and successful grant writing opened the door to employment at the Parsons State Hospital and Training Center in Kansas and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. He held faculty positions at Western Michigan University, Gallaudet College, and Purdue University. During his tenure at Purdue University, Dr. Lloyd mentored nearly 40 doctoral students; many of these former students are now leaders in the field of AAC. Due to his contributions to AAC, special education, and speech-language pathology, Dr. Lloyd earned honors of the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, Council for Exceptional Children, and the International Society for Augmentative and Alternative Communication. Dr. Lloyd passed away February 12, 2020, at age 85 years.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;

for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
