Mutism

This monograph provides an examination of both functional and organic causes and types of mutism. Written in an informative style appropriate for readers with varying levels of knowledge and experience, the book will appeal to student and practitioner alike. Dr Lebrun's scholarship and fluency in several languages enable him to avoid parochial positions and limitations of national boundaries and monolingualism. "Mutism" will provide instructive reading for speech therapist/pathologists, paediatricians, neurologists and those involved in special education.
