{"product_id":"9780473566241","title":"The Suspect Speaker: The Frustrations And The Blessings Of Life With Aphasia (The Suspect Speaker Series)","description":"There are fifteen short short stories in this volume. All the stories are about people who have difficulty in verbal communication. People with aphasia. Aphasia is the loss of a previously held ability to articulate ideas or comprehend spoken or written language, resulting from damage to the brain caused by injury or disease. These stories contain a taste, an inkling, of what it is to have aphasia: the frustrations, the anger, the acceptance and the blessings. Each story here has three versions: A, B and C. The A version is for people who have aphasia that have difficulty in reading. The sentences are compact and descriptions are sparse. The C versions is for people with aphasia who can read, or who like to be read to, by their supporters \/ carers. The B versions are in-between - a therapeutic 'sandwich'. People who have aphasia can get the gist of the stories from the A version, and in recovery, over time, can extend their reading ability for the B or C stories--Back cover.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eJames Anthony Stephens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eNational Library of New Zealand | Te Puna Matauranga o Aotearoa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJun 11, 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e239 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0473566249\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e• \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780473566241\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"National Library of New Zealand , Te Puna Matauranga o Aotearoa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50373117378865,"sku":"9780473566241","price":13.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9780473566241__11788.jpg?v=1732634498","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780473566241","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
