Talking about Aphasia

An excellent overview of a topic that while not exactly under-researched, rarely considers the patient's point of view so prominently. The text does repeat itself at times but it's so short (138 pages, about a 3.5 hour read) I didn't really mind that much; sometimes it helps to read the same thing in a different context to help it really “click”, and non-aphasic readers need to remember this book is not meant exclusively for them, but for the actual people living with the condition as well. It is meant to tell them “you are not alone in your experiences”, and I think that's wonderful, especially in reproducing their words faithfully throughout the text.
