Beskrivning
Many children and adults experience significant breakdown in the use of language. The resulting pragmatic disorders present a considerable barrier to effective communication. This book is the first critical examination of the current state of our knowledge of pragmatic disorders and provides a comprehensive overview of the main concepts and theories in pragmatics. It examines the full range of pragmatic disorders that occur in children and adults and discusses how they are assessed and treated by clinicians. Louise Cummings attempts to integrate the fields of pragmatics, language pathology and cognitive science by examining the ways in which pragmatics can make a useful contribution to debates about cognitive theories of autism. The reader is encouraged to think in a critical fashion about how clinicians, experimentalists and theorists deal with pragmatic issues.

Recensioner i media

'… an invaluable contribution to the research field of language pathology … a long awaited trait d'union between pragmatic theories and cognitive theories that account for pragmatic impairments in language disordered subjects … Clinical Pragmatics is an inspiring book, an essential tool for every investigator interested in pragmatic disorders, both developmental and acquired, and their assessment and treatment. Cummings brilliantly filled a gap that had long been overlooked. Few linguists have dealt with this topic in such an insightful and thorough way as she does with this book, which surely stands out as a significant contribution to 'the emergence of a new, mature phase in the development of clinical pragmatics'.'
