Góral-Półrola, presents a new, interdisciplinary approach to speech fluency disorders using cognitive linguistics, humanistic psychology and process neuropsychology, enabling us to discuss stuttering from more than one perspective. This in-depth study on the borderline subject of neurologopedia, pragmalinguistics (the study of the use of illocution in a language) and neuropsychology (microgenetic theory) is interesting from both a theoretical and practical point of view. The reader will find a thorough analysis of the most modern approaches used to study brain activity (especially regarding microgenetic theory) as well as the results of the author’s research. The research’s neurological and neuropsychological basis, as well as its microgenetic theory approach, strongly support the monograph, and provide tools for understanding the origins of stuttering and formulating sound conclusions. This type of approach to a better understanding of stuttering based on the author’s research is the first of its kind worldwide. This monograph is very useful for both didactics and people who stutter. The author challenges herself to answer key primary questions: What is the pattern of conversation with person who stutters? What kind of strategies are used by a person who speaks fluently compared to those used by a person who stutters? How do they interact when they communicate? Do people who stutter prefer a particular interpersonal communication style and does the communicative style of a person who stutters relate to how they evaluate their own stuttering? It should be emphasized that the conversation (discourse) with a person who stutters has not been evaluated in detail despite the fact that stuttering is particularly common during conversation, as well as in dialogue (not in monologue) and in a spontaneous speech. Until now, the studies on this topic were based on individual descriptions of their own communication skills using different measurements and questionnaires, which did not always yield realistic results. The basis of this interdisciplinary monograph is based on a change of research methods of the speech therapist working with speech hesitancy, from the theoretical approach characteristic to specialist literature to a dialogue approach JOLANTA GÓRAL-PÓŁROLA, JĄKANIE.
