Product Description

Review

"This book is a tour de force. I would expect the book to quickly become a classic reference in the field. It is extremely up-to-date, helped in part by the fact that Dr. Leonard is the author of some of the best research on the topic."--Erika Hoff-Ginsberg, Professor of Psychology, Florida Atlantic University

Review

"Leonard's study will be indispensable for anyone who needs to keep current on child language development in general, and developmental language pathologies in particular... One of the preeminent scholars in the field, Leonard offers a fairly balanced view of specific language impairment in children, no easy task given the controversial nature of the subject. He also provides a comprehensive review of the literature, from the earliest beginnings of work in this field in the last century down to the very latest references. As a resource for students at all levels and for scholars of language development, this work is simply unparalleled." L. E. Hewitt, Choice "This book is a tour de force. I would expect the book to quicklybecome a classic reference in the field. It is extremely up-to-date,helped in part by the fact that Dr. Leonard is the author of some ofthe best research on the topic." Erika Hoff-Ginsberg , Professor of Psychology, Florida Atlantic University --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
