Stuttering: Foundations and Clinical Applications, Third Edition
presents a comprehensive overview of the science and treatment of
stuttering in a single text. The book offers a unique level of
coverage of the stuttering population, the disorder's features, and
the therapies offered for different ages. Written for both
undergraduate and graduate level audiences, the authors guide
students to critically appraise different viewpoints about the
nature of stuttering, understand the disorder's complexities, and
learn about the major clinical approaches and therapies appropriate
for different age groups. This evidence-based textbook is divided
into three distinct sections. Part I, Nature of Stuttering, offers
descriptive information about stuttering, including its
demographics and developmental pathways. Part II explores the
various explanations of stuttering, giving students an
understanding of why people stutter. Part III focuses on clinical
management, delving into the assessment of both adults and
children, as well as various age-appropriate intervention
approaches. In the final chapter, the authors explore other fluency
disorders, as well as cultural and bilingual issues. New to the
