Living with Stuttering: Stories, Basics, Resources, and Hope
Description:
Living with Stuttering is for anyone with a personal, clinical, or academic interest in speech disorders—and anyone with a general interest in the human experience. Ken St. Louis neatly and thoroughly explains the current state of thinking and practice, and some of the history that has brought the profession to this point. Beyond this, the book presents the personal testimonies of twenty-nine people whose lives have been to some degree shaped by stuttering—stories of humor and heartbreak, acceptance and rejection, and the ability of an individual to define and achieve his or her own standard of success. These experiences powerfully illustrate that we humans are all very different from each other, and also very much the same.
“Stuttering cannot be completely understood unless personal experiences are taken into account. In this second edition of his invaluable book, Ken St. Louis presents several of these stories from a diverse group of people … The book also provides a summary of important information about stuttering, and useful resources for people who stutter and their families.”
—Michael P. Boyle, PhD, CCC-SLP; Associate Professor, Communication Sciences and Disorders, Montclair State University
“Even though [the first edition] is on my shelf, it’s rarely ‘on my shelf.’ … This new version picks up with an updated Stuttering 101 chapter, summarizes the public opinions of stuttering, and presents candid stories from people who stutter to make the experience of stuttering real. Thanks to you, Ken…and to all of your story tellers!”
—John A. Tetnowski, PhD, CCC-SLP, BCS-F, ASHA-F; Professor & Jeanette Sias Endowed Chair; Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders; Oklahoma State University
“Ken St. Louis … has purposefully included stories of individuals from beyond the US—in their own words—which demonstrate that we can not only live but can thrive, regardless of whether or not we happen to stutter. It is a book of inspiration, information, and hope.”
—Lee Reeves, DVM, Past Chairman, National Stuttering Association
