Book Description
This long awaited revision was written based on the belief that clinical professionals should have specialized knowledge about a disorder, the people it affects, and how it can be managed effectively, and that such knowledge should be based on empirical scientific studies. The best and most authoritative sources for such information are the individuals who have been involved in its acquisition. Thus, this book's authors include researchers who gathered much of the data that are discussed, theorists who attempt to explain such data, and clinicians who developed and tested many of the assessment and management procedures currently employed with children and adults who stutter. This contributed text covers the epidemiology, characteristics, etiological accounts and treatment of stuttering. It provides thorough, scholarly reviews of what is known about stuttering and its clinical management. It is informative, comprehensive, current, and authoritative in its coverage. It is intended to be both a reference for professionals and a text for students in graduate research and clinical training programs.

Book Description
Although there is now a large body of research into the nature and treatment of stuttering, little is understood about its underlying mechanisms. As a result until now there has been no comprehensive review of the numerous theories and models that have been proposed to explain stuttering. Theoretical Issues in Stuttering provides a comprehensive account of the contribution of theory to understanding and managing stuttering. It covers an impressive range of topics including a description of both past and current theories of stuttering, placing each within the relevant historical context. In addition, the authors evaluate the explanatory power of such models and provide a detailed exploration of the implications of these models for the practitioner. Theoretical Issues in Stuttering aims to fill a gap in the literature on the subject of stuttering theory and to act as an invaluable resource for speech-language pathologists, lecturers and advanced students of speech and language pathology.

Book Description
This text brings together the experience and expertise of a group of speech and language therapists who work with, both individually and in groups, children and adults who stutter. The past 2 decades have seen the emergence of what might be termed a British school of stuttering therapy, which has placed increasing emphasis on the need to improve communication skills, encourage a more positive approach to talking and facilitate a change in the stutterer's self-perception. The influence of Kelly's work in Personal Construct psychology is evident throughout the book, and there is a chapter devoted to the application of Kelly's ideas in stuttering therapy. This influence has been importance in shaping our approach to therapy. The book looks at both theoretical and practical aspects of management, including the development of stuttering and early intervention, family therapy, and working with adolescents and adults. It includes some hitherto unpublished work on self-esteem and a final chapter on the issues of under and postgraduate training and service provision.
