Il consacre une grande part aux remédiations en brossant un panorama critique des différentes options et surtout en privilégiant l’aspect pratique avec une vaste panoplie d’exercices.

Offrant une approche pratique et dynamique, ce livre correspond à l’attente des praticiens du bégaiement et convient aux personnes qui bégaient et à leur entourage.Les nombreux exercices (plus de 300) forment un répertoire où puiseront non seulement les orthophonistes et autres thérapeutes du bégaiement, les personnes bègues, les parents mais aussi les enseignants, les chanteurs, animateurs et comédiens. Les praticiens du langage pourront les utiliser également pour la rééducation d’autres pathologies (voix, retard de langage, bredouillement).L’ou... s’adresse aux orthophonistes-logop... neuropsychologues, neurolinguistes, médecins, enseignants, psychologues et toute personne qui s'intéresse aux bégaiements en tant que phénomène humain, culturel et social.
