Product Description

This highly readable, clinically oriented handbook combines theory and therapy and examines all facets of stuttering, from possible etiologies through assessment to treatment.

While considerable uncertainty still exists regarding the precise cause(s) of stuttering, Conture provides the reader with an even-handed coverage of fundamental knowledge, methodology, and procedures for effectively dealing with stuttering in children, teenagers, and adults. The book goes beyond a “how to” manual. Rather, Conture's clinical handbook provides both students and clinicians a source for principle-based procedures and strategies for the management of stuttering. Focusing on people who stutter as people first and people who stutter second, the text covers assessment and management of stuttering within the realities of everyday living, concomitant speech and language problems and clinical practice.

Better on the market 27 Jun 2009

By Jessica - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Paperback

Excellent resource on dysfluency but needs to be updated!...at times the material is so dry and it definitely reads like a textbook, instead of a clinical manual - which is what I generally prefer. I really like the interview questions for parents in the appendix area. Good reference tool for stuttering but not my favorite by a long shot. However, I would consider repurchasing an updated copy that had better 'readability' and contained a CD-ROM/ DVD for clinical application.
