Augmentive and alternative communication (AAC) refers to strategies developed for people who are unable to use speech, gestures, or handwriting. This introductory textbook for students and practitioners describes how people communicate using a variety of AAC techniques and devices (both electronic and non-electronic). It also reviews specific AAC interventions for individuals with developmental disabilities. The final five chapters focus on the clinical applications of AAC for persons with acquired communication disorders. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
