This book is quite clear. However, it did not go into the depth that I would have liked. It is merely an introductory book, and intended at people who want to become clinicians, SLPs, etc.

It's written less like a standard textbook. It goes through many examples of children with disorders, with their stories and transcripts of their speech.

excellent condition.
