Book Synopsis Multilingual Aspects of Signed Language Communication and Disorder by : David Quinto-Pozos
Book excerpt: This book provides a synthesis of work on communication disorders of child and adult users of signed languages. The chapters investigate linguistic impairments caused by deficits in visual processing and motor movements, as well as neurological decline. The volume also contains in-depth descriptions of child language acquisition in the signed modality and suggestions about how signed languages might guard against communication disorder.
