This is the fourth edition of an introductory textbook that provides a strong foundation for undergraduate students who are enrolled in their first course in communication sciences and disorders. We edited the book with two important assumptions in mind. First, we assumed that the students who read it would have relatively little prior knowledge about the scientific study of communication, the nature of communication disorders, or the professions of audiology and speech-language pathology. Second, we assumed that if students found the content of this book to be interesting, they would be likely to enroll in courses that would examine most of the topics that are included in much greater detail.

Given these assumptions, we focused on providing the reader with a wide-angle view of communication sciences and disorders. We wanted to show the considerable forest that is communication sciences and disorders without having to focus on too many individual trees. We wanted readers to get a sense of the variety of topics that speech, language, and hearing scientists study and the variety of individuals that audiologists and speech-language pathologists treat.
