Children's Speech Sound Disorders by Caroline Bowen
Caroline Bowen's Children's Speech Sound Disorders will be welcomed by experienced and novice clinicians, clinical educators, and students in the field of speech-language pathology/speech and language therapy for its practical, clinical focus. Drawing on the evidence base where possible, and making important theory to practice links overt, Bowen enhances her comprehensive account of assessment and clinical management of children with protracted or problematic speech development, with the addition of forty nine expert essays. These unique contributions are authored by fifty one internationally respected academicians, clinicians, researchers and thinkers representing a range of work settings, expertise, paradigms and theoretical orientations. In response to frequently asked questions about their work they address key theoretical, assessment, intervention, and service delivery issues.
I love this bookIt is jam packed full of information on speech sound disorders; from providing an overview of where research and intervention has developed from and where we are 'at' in the evidence based world of providing speech intervention in everyday practice. But more than this, I like the tone of the book. It is written in an objective, no-nonsense, direct, clinician to clinician approach, assuming knowledge in the reader but does not marginalise or patronise skill level.
