CUSTOMER REVIEWS (Average Customer Rating: 5.0 based on 1 review)

Well done reference on APD by Maxine Young (Broomall, PA) 5 Stars
February 22, 2008
Although all entries in this book are worthwhile reading for the audiologist interested in learning more about auditory processing disorders (APD), the chapters by Bhatnagar & Korabic(Neuroanatomy), Whitelaw & Yuskow (Neuromaturation), and Parthasarathy (Electrophysiologic Assessment) are particularly well done and provide concise and well-written information for both the practicing clinician and the AuD student. This is a "must" for the audiologist who is involved in doing and learning more about APD.
