description: A humanistic and family-centered emphasis in communication disorders book. David Luterman emphasizes that a clinician in communication disorders must be as skilled in working with and supporting people as in applying specific speech-language or audiological assessment or therapy techniques. A clinician must have a working knowledge of how a disability affects a client and his or her family, and of how people generate their own capacities and strategies for coping under what can be extremely stressful and challenging circumstances. It is David's respect for the intricacy and complexity of the counseling process that makes his message so special.
