Still on the fence by Jessica (Austin, TX)  3 Stars
June 27, 2009
Not at all an easy or fun read for the beginning/CF/intermediate clinician! The material contained within is invaluable but it's not a 'cover to cover' read. I generally use it as a reference tool. Most of the information is very dry. I preferred 'Motor Speech Disorders' by Freed, which was more engaging for me and came w/ a DVD. Good to have on the shelf but not more than that.

The Best by salomander 5 Stars
September 07, 2008
Joseph Duffy is a superb thinker and he is able to translate his life work of motor speech disorders (MSDs) in an easy to read (fun and interesting but not too wordy or personal), informative manner. This is the best book for MSD's.
