'What do I need to do to make a difference?' might be our most important and frequently asked question as clinicians. In this insightful and accessible presentation of Clinical Cases in Dysarthria, well-known authors and editors Margaret Walshe and Nick Miller describe, together with invited authors, a number of relevant and informative case examples, cases that reveal the depth and complexity of the communication problems faced by individuals with dysarthria and their clinicians. And they do it with the passion to make a difference. Walshe and Miller provide us with an opportunity to learn from individuals and to thereby find principles to apply in other cases. We gain new perspectives, rather than just solving problems. -- Professor Lena Hartelius, Department of Health and Rehabilitation, University of Gothenburg, Sweden.
