Children with specific language impairment (SLI) show a significant deficit in spoken language that cannot be attributed to neurological damage, hearing impairment, or intellectual disability. More prevalent than autism and at least as prevalent as dyslexia, SLI affects approximately seven percent of all children; its is longstanding, with adverse effects on academic, social, and (eventually) economic standing.

This second edition offers a complete update of the earlier volume.
