" Childhood Motor Speech Disability provides a comprehensive,

up-to-date outline of all childhood motor speech disabilities. This

text also gives readers a complete picture of the major nervous system

disorders associated with dysarthria, presents the five types of

childhood dysarthria, and clarifies the classification of childhood

dysarthria.

The eight years since the publication of the first edition have seen

an increased interest in the nature and habilitation of the

controversial disorder known as developmental verbal dyspraxia (DVD).

The heated controversy and intense interest in DVD is questioned and

put in perspective by pointing out that it is a low frequency

pediatric phonological disorder compared to the widespread

phonological delay of unknown origin.

Childhood Motor Speech Disability also reviews and critiques a

three-part research study in JSHR and two major textbooks that have

been published since the first edition. "
