Workbook for Aphasia

Exercises for Expressive and Receptive Language

Susan Howell Brubaker has revised the classic Workbook for Aphasia to update the language and situations to better serve twenty-first-century patients. This highly recognizable “blue book” has been used by speech-language pathologists as a "time honored" treatment tool with target populations ranging from adults to early adolescents. The exercises encompass basic-to-higher-level tasks addressing reading, graphics, word retrieval, formulation, and a variety of other language skills.

The new edition responds to the comments and suggestions of longtime users. The most visible change is the ring binder that will allow for easy copying of treatment materials for individual patients. Inside the workbook, many questions have been revised and others have been added. The new edition contains more exercises with improved answer keys. In addition, the book’s new, larger font and improved spacing better enables patients with visual difficulties to read the text.

This revised and updated third edition will enhance the ability of speech-language pathologists to address the language-impaired population within their practices.
