Review

"This text is by far the most useful text book that I have my students read. We read it from cover-to-cover and spend a great deal of time discussing the unique way that Dr. Manning describes the role of the clinician in the assessment and treatment of stuttering. This book teaches students not only how to work with persons who stutter - but how to become a knowledgeable, caring, professional clinician."
