A technical, but thorough overview of these exciting areas

This book is useful for speech pathologists whose "passion" is aphasia. It is very technical, and is not an "easy read." But it gives the most organized introduction to the two related, but relatively recent fields of neurolinguistics and linguistic aphasiology. Dr. Caplan's writing strength is the organization of the book and the chapters it comprises. A logical sequence is outlined, followed, and summarized. Excellent for those wishing to develop research interests
