This is the first book-length study of phonological development and impairment of Chinese-speaking children. It provides the first normative data on this population, which will be of value to speech and language therapists and other professionals. It also advances the notion of ‘phonological saliency’ which explains the cross-linguistic similarities and differences in children’s phonological development.
