Excerpt from The Real Cause of Stammering and Its Permanent Cure: A Treatise on Psycho-Analytical Lines

The present treatise is the outcome of experiences gathered in the course of unwearying researches covering a period of more than twenty years. During that time perseverance now and then threatened to give way, and I was frequently tempted to devote my mind to other tasks; but the necessity which must stimulate any humane person to pass on knowledge which is likely to benefit the community urged me over and over again to continued activity in the domain here treated. I was the more anxious to master the details of the only reliable cure for stammering, since I myself languished in the gloomy and mysterious fetters of this agonizing complaint during my youth and early manhood, and knew only too well how the pleasure of conversation with friends and acquaintances is curtailed, and how oral communication with strangers is not only distressing but is sometimes prevented altogether.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex history of stammering, exploring centuries of theories and treatments for this often misunderstood affliction. The author, himself a lifelong stammerer, embarks on a journey through the evolution of understanding, starting with ancient Greek and Roman observations, moving through the Middle Ages, and culminating in the theories of the 19th century. The narrative reveals the dramatic shift in thinking about stammering from a purely physical to a primarily psychological understanding. Early theories centered around anatomical abnormalities, leading to the controversial and ultimately disastrous use of surgery as a cure. The author chronicles the rise and fall of surgical intervention, vividly depicting the desperation of sufferers and the hubris of practitioners. The book lays bare the shortcomings of traditional methods, including breathing exercises and speech drills, which aimed to correct physical symptoms but failed to address the underlying emotional and psychological complexities of the condition. The author's own experiences with various treatments, including multiple unsuccessful surgical operations, provide a deeply personal and compelling perspective. This book offers invaluable insight into the psychological nature of stammering, paving the way for a more effective and empathetic approach to treatment. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781330477908_0
