Overview

"This book brings together speech scientists and clinicians to discuss the best ways to close the perceived gap and maximize the effectiveness of treatment. Together, the chapters offer a comprehensive state-of-the-art overview of the complexities of stuttering and its remediation. Genetic, neuropsychological, behavioural and often-neglected affective and cognitive factors are all considered. Preferred methodologies for empirical investigation are described, and specific examples of applied clinical research designs are provided. ""Stuttering Research and Practice: Bridging the Gap"" should be valuable to students and professionals in the field of fluency disorders."

Reviews

This is an important book for researchers and clinicians to have in their libraries, not because it bridges the gap, real or fancied, between research and practice, but because it helps to frame the issues and the difficulties inherent in building the bridge. -Contemporary Psychology
