摘要

The document contains the presentations of the workshop participants. It provides a discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of various approaches and protocols, differing philosophies in treatment and rehabilitation of aphasic individuals, and the identification of research needs across a variety of areas. It is hoped that this monograph will serve to encourage researchers in aphasia treatment to pursue the issues and priorities discussed during the workshop.
