Cleft Palate and Speech

DONALD W. MACCOLLUM M.D.

This book has been a source book of speech training for children with cleft palates ever since it was first published in 1945. Since then it has gone through five editions. In those 17 years there have been many modifications in the treatment of cleft palates. The surgery, in general, has improved tremendously, aiming always for physiological closure of the enlarged nasopharynx during speech. Antibiotics and greatly superior anesthesia have cut down the mortality appreciably. Miss Morley has attempted to bring all this data up to date in this fifth edition.
