This volume continues to be the leading text in the field, providing a practical case approach to diagnosing and evaluating speech and language disorders. This easy-to-read, yet comprehensive resource provides a strong foundation, a series of guideposts, for students in training and clinicians. It provides a rationale for each type of assessment, including both standardized and non-standardized approaches.

For this fifth edition, Haynes and Pindzola have updated their text, reflecting the theoretical, clinical, and technological advances that have taken place in the field. Increased focus on the client, multiculturism, and non-standardized assessment is integrated throughout each chapter.
