Working with Pragmatics by Lucie Andersen-Wood
This title covers the principles and practice of pragmatics. It offers an opportunity to explore this subject with confidence and to plan intervention programmes for effective management. It offers practical pragmatic teaching activities to develop communication skills. Assessment and diagnostic measures are provided which, together with many activity ideas, make this an essential resource. It includes a photocopiable client-centred assessment form, photocopiable child and client information sheets and a list of characteristics of pragmatic dysfunction. It is a welcome addition to the materials available to professionals planning therapy and teaching programmes using this approach.
