This latest issue of Seminars in Speech and Language is in response to a questionnaire sent to readers last year. At that time, readers
indicated strongly that they wished to be updated on the treatment of traumatic brain
injury (TBI). It is fortuitous that the Academy of Neurologic Communication Disorders
and Sciences (ANCDS) was completing its practice guidelines on TBI at that time. Seminars was well positioned to publish one of its major compilations concerning clinical
management. This issue represents truly state-of-the-art treatment and assessment
research concerning TBI. I thank Lyn S. Turkstra, Ph.D., and the authors she has assembled
to complete this issue. All of you recognize the authors as outstanding contributors
to our knowledge concerning TBI and its management.
