Book is very useful and easy to read. It comes with forms, but I can't print them since it is a Kindle ebook. I don't like that because I know that if I would have rented/bought this from RedShelf ebooks, I could have printed off the forms to use. However, Kindle allows me to copy and paste small portions of text and also automatically pastes the reference along with it! I know that the RedShelf version does not allow this. Highlighting is super easy as is attaching notes to the text. I'm trying to decide if I want to pay for the ebook so I can keep it, or to buy it somewhere else. If I was able to print the forms I would buy it without hesitation from Kindle.

This book is awesome. It (and the Treatment Resource Manual) is one of the best books I've bought for SLP material. (And I have a lot.) I have used this many times already in grad school and it's definitely one I'll use in my career. It has wonderful information on a variety of topics. It is well organized with well-documented research and explanations. It offers a wide range of materials to choose from and easily access. The price is steep but definitely worth it.

This is a great book! It is very easy to read and is so helpful. This is one of my favorite text books, because the chapters aren't very long but I feel like it has the right amount of information.

Great resource for speech language pathologists. Comes with cd to allow for printing forms.

It is a great book.
