This is a book for parents who are worried about their children's
stuttering, for teachers, doctors, friends, and relatives of those
who stutter, and for stutterers themselves. It offers help,
encouragement, and guidance in dealing with the problem of
stuttering, which troubles more than a million persons in the
United States alone.Dr. Johnson, an outstanding authority on the
subject, writes in simple language so that anyone can readily
understand and follow his suggestions. What he says in this book is
based on many years of laboratory research and clinical
observation, and his own experience as a stutterer. He tells of his
early years of struggle with the handicap and his decision to
devote his life to getting at the basic causes of stuttering and
finding ways to prevent or alleviate it. He describes his research
experiences, likening them to a detective story centered on a
search for the causes of stuttering as the culprit in the case. In
this account he quotes from interviews which he conducted with
parents in an effort to pinpoint the exact conditions or situations
in which stuttering was believed to have started. He explains how
the problem develops and how it becomes a frustrating
"sad-go-round." Finally, he tells what parents and others can do
for children who are threatened with the handicap of stuttering and
what adult stutterers can do to help themselves.
