(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Self-Therapy for the Stutterer (Paperback)

This is the best self-help book available for dealing with a stuttering problem. The book was written by Malcolm Fraser, now deceased, who was director of the Stuttering Foundation of America and a stutterer himself. The book contains many insightful quotations from experts in the field of stuttering.
