Apraxia: The Neural Network Model Hardback
by Theodore Wasserman, Lori Drucker Wasserman
Part of the Neural Network Model: Applications and Implications series
Hardback
- Information
Description
The work will be a reanalysis and reconceptualization of the concept of apraxia.
Apraxia is currently understood as a motor speech disorder but an analysis of the neural network properties of apraxia indicate a more complex and far reaching disorder with implications for intentionality, motor coordination and motor control of response inhibition in a variety of human behavioral and emotional reactions.
A thorough redefinition of apraxia will be provided along with suggestions for diagnoses and treatment.
The primary audience will be diagnostic and treating professionals in a variety of disciplines (outlined above).
Secondarily, the book will provide an argument and justification for considering developmental apraxia pf speech to be a separate and discrete white matter based disorder.
Finally, this work will serve as a driver of future research in the area.
