Communication and Swallowing Disorders in Infectious Diseases by Louise Cummings
This book examines communication and swallowing disorders in the context of infectious diseases.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought infectious disease to prominence in speech-language pathology. But the SARS-CoV-2 virus is only the latest pathogen in a long list of viruses, bacteria, parasites, and fungi that can compromise communication and swallowing in children and adults. This volume examines several infectious diseases that are known to disrupt speech, language, voice, hearing, and swallowing. These diseases include HIV; herpes simplex virus; cytomegalovirus; Zika virus; human papilloma virus; COVID-19; streptococcus; candidiasis; syphilis; and tuberculosis. Each chapter examines a different infectious disease and discusses its epidemiology, onset, clinical course, and, where relevant, neurological sequelae. The impact of infectious diseases on speech, voice, hearing, language, and swallowing is the focus of each chapter. Chapters also address assessment and treatment considerations in this diverse clinical population.
This book is suitable reading for students, clinicians, and researchers in speech-language pathology, audiology, psychology, education, pediatric medicine, neurology, and ENT medicine.

"I was paying $11.99/month for Kindle Unlimited but realized I was renting books, not owning them. Bought this PDF and it's mine forever. Never going back to Kindle."
"Switched from Kindle to these PDFs. Same book, but I actually OWN it now. No monthly fees, no app required. Worth every penny."
"Kindle Unlimited kept raising prices. This is a one-time purchase and the file is permanently on my iPad. Best decision I've made for my reading habit."
"I compared Kindle vs this store. Kindle is cheaper monthly but you don't own anything. Here I paid once and the PDF is mine for life. Highly recommend."
"Left Kindle behind after they removed a book I was reading mid-series. With this PDF, nobody can take it away from me. True ownership feels good."
"Was skeptical about paying $18.95 when Kindle shows $3.99, but then I did the math — Kindle Unlimited is $143/year! This is way better value long term."
"Love that I can read this on any device without installing the Kindle app. The PDF works on my laptop, phone, and tablet seamlessly. So much freedom."
"My Kindle subscription was getting expensive. Switched to buying PDFs here and I'm saving money while actually building a permanent digital library I control."
