This text focuses on communication development from infancy through to adolescence by presenting detailed theoretical and research information on the language acquisition process. It also provides the student with an initial exposure to the clinical applicability of the literature in the field. Each chapter shows the clinical relevance of the particular aspect of communication development described, using case studies. The book presents communication development as an aspect of child development and the content is logically sequenced: the information extends from foundations (neurolinguistics, theories of communication development, motor and social development, caretaker-child interaction, cognitive development from prelinguistic stage) through advanced stages.

Language Development: Foundations, Processes, and Clinical Applications, Second Edition provides an accessible overview of language development covering the typical course of language development within the clinical context of language assessment and intervention. The Second Edition examines the biological, developmental, and environmental systems of neurotypical children, and the role of these systems as linguistic input in the childâ€™s environment contributing to language development. This comprehensive resource, written and contributed by over 20 experts in the field, provides students with an understanding of the foundations of language development in terms of each individual childâ€™s communication needs. With case studies woven throughout the text, students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing signs of problems. These cases and clinical practice applications will help students prepare for the clinical challenges they will face in their professional careers. Every year, new information, new theories, and new evidence are published about development to explain the complexities that create and facilitate the language acquisition process. The authors who have contributed to this text provide the latest research and perspectives on language development among neurotypical children. This valuable text bridges biological, environmental, technological, and professional venues to advance the development of professionals and children alike.
