The Clinician's Guide to Treating Cleft Palate Speech (Paperback)

This pocket-size handbook provides brief summaries about the effects of clefts and non-cleft velopharyngeal inadequacy (VPI) on communication development in children. Its clinical focus covers the diagnosis and management of the resulting disorders, with information presented in a quick-reference format, including many bulleted lists, tables, and helpful illustrations. While this book is a complete work on its own, there is some referencing of the larger textbook "Cleft Palate Speech", that provides background on research and theory, as well as additional illustrations.
