Stuttering has been in the shadows of public awareness for years, yet it is a malady that has not received a great deal of attention. In 2011, "The King's Speech," a British historical drama won an Academy Award, and made stuttering part of the public conversation. Moviegoers learned of the embarrassing pain that most 'People Who Stutter' (PWS) suffer. The movie is about the young man who became the King of England just prior to the Second World War. It reveals the painful experiences that stuttering created for him. But, even more than that, the speech trainer in the movie brings into focus the fact that stuttering is not about speech--it is about the "thinking" that is mostly unconscious. In this ground-breaking volume, the author details a completely new approach to treating this debilitating condition and explains both the structure of stuttering and blocking and provides the cognitive tools for gaining more fluency.
