Summary: Adequate, but nothing special
Comment: I used this text as an undergraduate, and later when teaching the Phonological and Articulation Disorders course as a TA, so I have gotten to know it well.

Strengths:
- Information on structural anomalies and their impact on articulation
- Emphasis on the difference between phonological and articulation disorders
- Description of several treatment approaches and which disorder to use them for
- Good appendices, especially the word lists and passages for screening/assessment
- Discussion of when to treat and when not to treat, as well as prognostic indicators
- Presentation of multiple perspectives on issues (although it's a headache for test-writing)

Weaknesses:
- Descriptions of phonological processes are unclear, and the examples sometimes don't fit
- Information from different chapters is sometimes contradictory (making the test-writing headache worse)
- Terrible formatting and visual accessibility of the information
- Terrible, AWFUL index
- Incomplete glossary--definitions found in the chapters are not always included in the glossary
- Poor goal-writing advice
- Some information is dated (example: it discusses the original Goldman-Fristoe, which was revised several years ago)

I would recommend this text with reservations.
