Abstract

This volume, by a psychologist who has devoted much of her interest and attention to problems of language and communication, goes far beyond the usual medical treatment of speech and language development. Wyatt has dealt, in a manner thoroughly useful to pediatricians, with the social and interpersonal bases of speech and language. Besides explicating the general viewpoint of normal language development as a transactional phenomenon in which emotional sharing and repetitive feedback play crucial early roles, she presents two extensive case histories which portray the vicissitudes of speech development in its personal-emotional context.
