The latest edition of Cognitive Communication Disorders 4th Edition is a vital resource for graduate programs in speech-language pathology focusing on communication issues rooted in cognitive impairments. It delivers crucial insights into the cognitive elements of communication, such as attention, memory, and executive functions. The textbook offers an in-depth exploration of how impairments in these fundamental cognitive skills appear in conditions like right hemisphere brain damage, dementia, primary progressive aphasia, concussions, and traumatic brain injuries.
