Summary: Ok but expensive
Comment: The video that comes with the book is excellent. Each example is numerically cued on the screen so that you can look up anything noted in the book and see an example of what is being described in the text on the videotape. This was an excellent way to present the video material. You can use the video this way to have a very informative afternoon learning about this disorder. The book is so-so. I think that Schwartz (not to be confused with Martin Schwartz, the airflow therapist) is wrong on more than a few points. By now, however, I know that no one stuttering book can serve as a primer for therapists. You need to read a great deal, be always willing to individualize your treatment for each client's needs, and be open and flexible rather than committed to any one theory or treatment method. If you are a therapist working with fluency clients, add this to your library. If you are a therapist trying to learn more about fluency, the tape and text can serve as an at-home workshop for you. If you are a stutterer seeking materials for self-therapy, this may be too academic and much too technical for you.
