Abandoned : Now Stutter My Orphan

Descripción

"ABANDONED traces the lifelong struggle of an orphan who stutters. Frank, a gifted child with an inmentionable pedigree, relains distantly observed by his mother. Tribulations at the hands of a vindictive orphanage matron perpetuates his stuttering. He searches for a 'cure' and discovers as study completed in 1939 that seems to hold the answer. His interviews the author of THE MONSTER STUDY, Mary Tudor. Her 'semantics' experiment in which normal children were labeled stutterers' became the foundation for a timeless theory of stuttering. Completed in the same era as Hitler's human atrocities, the results of Mary's study were suppressed. ABANDONED reveals the desing and outcomes of THE MONSTER STUDY. The fictional character 'Frank' is based, in part, on the life of Dr. Franklin Silverman-a lifelong stutterer and the first person to publicly reveal the unspoken truth." This book has 282 pages. Overall, a FINE copy with FINE dustjacket of this VERY SCARCE title.
