The Stutterer's Survival guide provides crucial support for the stutterer who has tried one of the many treatment programs available and is now facing the challenge of maintaining their fluency.
This guide provides practical advice and suggests specific strategies to help the stutterer through those 'hot spots' at school, at work and at play, including interviews, telephone conversations, presentations, parties.
To reinforce the importance of support, a special chapter is devoted to the stutterer's family and friends. Establishing a continuing supportive relationship with other stutterers is also encouraged.
The Stutterer's Survival Guide is illustrated throughout with witty, lighthearted cartoons which empathise with the reader, adding humour and lightening the tone of the book, without trivialising the subject.
Nicholas Tunbridge is uniquely qualified to offer this down-to-earth advice. Nicholas is thirty-seven years old, has stuttered since he was four years old and has tried many forms of treatment. Three years ago Nicholas achieved a high level of fluency. This guide describes the techniques Nicholas uses to get him through his life both socially and professionally.
Nicholas is now employed as a human resources consultant, a job that requires him to use speech effectively and confidently. He is married and lives in Sydney, Australia with his wife and daughter.
The foreword to the book was written by Megan Neilson, PhD, and contains general information about stuttering and its treatment.THE STUTTERER'S SURVIVAL GUIDE by Nicholas Tunbridge (1994) (ISBN 0-201-44356-2) is available in paperback for $14.95 ($Australian) from: Addison-Wesley Publishing Company 6 Byfield St, North Ryde, NSW 2113, Australia Phone +61 2 878 5411 Fax +61 2 878 5830
