• Dennis C. Tanner, professor of health sciences in NAU's College of Health and Human Services, recently published the second edition of The Family Guide to Surviving Stroke and Communication Disorders. The book is a comprehensive guide for families of stroke survivors, for speech pathologists and rehabilitation specialists and for counselors who respond to the needs of stroke survivors and their families. Through non-technical terms, case studies, questions and answers and examples, this book engages readers on a journey toward understanding, healing and persevering. This book also describes the "big three" stroke-related communication disorders: aphasia, apraxia and dysarthrias. New chapters in this second edition include examples of the courage, determination and resourcefulness of stroke survivors and their families in meeting the challenges of this major life-altering event.
