The concise, easy-to-understand Neurology for the Speech-Language Pathologist, 7th Edition provides you with a practical guide for the study and understanding of neurology as it relates to human communication and the study of speech-language pathology (SLP). Correlated with clinical syndromes and diseases seen in SLP, it gives you a solid understanding of the nervous system, including development of the nervous system, organization of the brain, protective mechanisms, descending motor and ascending sensory pathways, and cranial nerves.
