E-Government
Investment in information and communication technologies (ICTs) by governments in the developing world has increased dramatically in recent years. Most developing countries are adopting ICTs primarily to modernise and increase internal efficiency as well as to improve service delivery./-//-/This book is based on twelve case studies from six countries that are considered to be pioneers in developing e-applications. Analysing existing applications, Subhash Bhatnagar provides powerful and practical insights into emerging E-Government trends in the developing world. He documents the impact and benefits of E-Government on public sector reform, poverty reduction and empowerment.
An Introduction to Auditory Processing Disorders in Children
Auditory processing in children (APD) comprises an increasingly important clinical area within the broad field of communication disorders. This new textbook presents the major advances in the assessment and management of APD. The chapter authors, highly regarded clinicians and researchers from diverse professional groups, contribute an impressive breadth of knowledge to explain and demystify APD. This text will be useful to students of speech language pathology and audiology, as well as professionals in those fields.
Neuroscience for the Study of Communicative Disorders
Focusing on how the science and anatomy of brain processes affect speech and hearing, this updated 5th Edition of Dr. Bahtnagar's best-selling text offers an easy-to-understand, practical overview of the basics of neuroscience. To provide a comprehensive view of the topic, the book is arranged by systems and structures, with the processes that serve higher mental functions and control speech and hearing covered within specific chapters. In every chapter, the author includes interactive, problem-solving case studies that promote critical thinking and connect neuroscience to the disorders that students will see in practice. Updated to reflect the most recent findings and clinical applications in the field, the 5th Edition and has been meticulously revised to make the study of neuroscience even more user-friendly. Dr. Bhatnagar's ability to present difficult information in a highly accessible fashion is evident on every page of this beautifully illustrated new edition.
Information Technology Policies and Applications in the Commonwealth Developing Countries
The main theme of this publication is a reminder that without a coherent national information technology policy which resonates clearly with national development objectives, and without a full understanding of the national, cultural and organisation context, a less than full return will be obtained for the investment of scarce resources.
The Yearbook of South Asian Languages and Linguistics 2004
South Asia is home to a large number of languages and dialects. The considerable body of linguists working on this region have made significant contributions to our understanding of language, society, and language in society on a global scale. Despite this, there is as yet no recognized international forum for the exchange of ideas amongst South Asian linguists. The YEARBOOK OF SOUTH ASIAN LANGUAGES AND LINGUISTICS is designed to be just that forum. It brings together empirical and theoretical research and serves as a testing ground for the articulation of new ideas and approaches which may be grounded in a study of South Asian languages but which have universal applicability. Each volume of...
Agrammatic Aphasia
This major reference work fills a need long recognized in neurolinguistics: a source for analyzable speech transcripts from agrammatic aphasic patients that provides detailed grammatical descriptions and distributional analyses. This 3-volume set is unique in that it presents narrative speech from carefully selected clinically comparable patients, speakers of 14 languages, and parallel narratives by normal speakers. For each of the 14 languages there is a case presentation chapter analyzing and discussing the language of agrammatic patients, followed by primary data, which are organized as follows: running text of speech by two patients; interlinear morphemic translations of those texts; run...
Encyclopedia of Language and Linguistics
The first edition of ELL (1993, Ron Asher, Editor) was hailed as "the field's standard reference work for a generation". Now the all-new second edition matches ELL's comprehensiveness and high quality, expanded for a new generation, while being the first encyclopedia to really exploit the multimedia potential of linguistics. * The most authoritative, up-to-date, comprehensive, and international reference source in its field * An entirely new work, with new editors, new authors, new topics and newly commissioned articles with a handful of classic articles * The first Encyclopedia to exploit the multimedia potential of linguistics through the online edition * Ground-breaking and International ...
The Handbook of Adult Language Disorders
This distinctive handbook is a key reference for both clinicians and researchers working in the scientific investigation of aphasia. The focus is on how the study of acquired language disorders has contributed to our understanding of normal language and its neural substrates, and to the clinical management of language disorders. The handbook is unique in that it reviews studies from the major disciplines in which aphasia research is conducted - cognitive neuropsychology, linguistics, neurology, neuroimaging, and speech-language pathology - as they apply to each topic of language. For each language domain (such as reading), there is a chapter devoted to theory and models of the language task, a chapter devoted to the neural basis of the language task (focusing on recent neuroimaging studies) and a chapter devoted to clinical diagnosis and treatment of impairments in that domain.
