Subject: Call for Book Proposals for Book Series
Methods in Speech & Language Disorders A Wiley Book Series, Edited by Martin J. Ball (University of Louisiana at Lafayette, USA) Alison Ferguson (University of Newcastle NSW, Australia) Vesna Stojanovik (University of Reading, England-U.K.) The aim of this series is to provide accessible and relevant texts to students of speech and language disorders, and to speech-language pathologists and therapists. The volumes aim to cover a wide variety of topics relevant for such an audience, and to introduce these topics in a practical way to enable student practitioners and qualified clinicians to undertake a range of analysis and treatment procedures. A minimum of background knowledge is assumed for each text, but the books also aim to point readers in the direction of further, more advanced, research. We intend to cover aspects of clinical linguistics and phonetics as applied to the assessment of speech and language disorders, and aspects of therapeutics suitable for the treatment of the wide range of communication disorders encountered in the clinic. Each volume will be authored by leading authorities in the field, who have a grasp of both the theoretical issues and the practical requirements of the area and, further, are at the forefront of current research and practice. This series, then, will acts as a bridge between scientific developments in the study of speech and language disorders, and the application of these to clinical assessment and intervention. It is hoped that the texts will stimulate the reader’s interest in the topic as well as providing hands-on advice. In this way we can promote well-informed and competent clinicians. Authors are encouraged to contact us with proposals for the series. North American authors please email mjball louisiana.edu, European authors should email v.stojanovik reading.ac.uk, and Asian and Australasian authors should email alison.ferguson newcastle.edu.au.
