Zawiodła mnie ta pozycja. Mam wrażenie, że autorzy powielali swoje rady i wszystko kręciło się wokół jednej rzeczy. Gdyby autorzy mieli dostęp do rozdziałów swoich poprzedników, może inaczej napisaliby swoje fragmenty? A może to ja jestem zbyt wymagająca, bo studiuję logopedię i nic odkrywczego nie znalazło się w tej książce?

An excellent collection of essays from speech therapists and professionals who have lived with a stutter. It is very interesting to read the perspective of people who have developed successful management practices, especially where those people have also studied speech.

I think the advice in this book is very good. The writing varies a little from author to author, but each perspective is intelligent and valuable. I'd recommend this book to anyone that thinks they might need it.
