»Stuttering and Related Fluency Disorders«, Fourth Edition honors the philosophy that discoveries of the past are the bedrock of the present and the inspiration for future explorations-in this context-the nature and treatment of stuttering. Initially developed over 30 years ago, the first two editions were edited by the late Richard F. Curlee and the third edition was co-edited by Dr. Curlee and Edward G. Conture. The fourth edition, co-edited by Patricia M. Zebrowski, Julie D. Anderson, and Dr. Conture, brings together contemporary insights and a multinational perspective from 44 world-class academicians, clinicians, and researchers in the field of stuttering and related disorders.
The book is organized into six sections and 17 chapters, with the first section describing basic facts and theories. The second section covers genetic, neural, linguistic, cognitive, and physiological factors. The third section features three dedicated chapters on the diagnosis of preschool-age children, school-age children, and adolescents and adults. The fourth section discusses treatment guidelines with three chapters organized by the same age demographics, while the fifth section covers bilingual and multicultural treatment considerations. The sixth, and last, section provides guidance on cluttering and acquired stuttering-from causes and symptoms to diagnosis and treatment.
Key Highlights:
- Up-to-date, reader-friendly text is ideal for students with no or limited background or experience in the nature and treatment of stuttering and related fluency disorders
- Comprehensive content covering all relevant aspects of stuttering in diverse populations across the lifespan, including etiology, development, diagnosis, and treatment

This text is essential reading for upper-class undergraduates and early-stage graduate students in communication sciences and disorders. It also provides an invaluable classroom tool for instructors teaching basic courses on this subject and is a helpful sourcebook for researchers investigating stuttering and related fluency disorders.
