duffy provides a solid and straight-forward depiction of the more prevalent motor speech disorders. the most important function of the text is to provide a solid foundation in differential diagnosis. most of the dysarthrias that present themselves are of the mixed variety and duffy provides the reader the essential tools necessary in recognizing the signs and symptoms. clinical experience needs to provide the rest. the neurological sections were presented from a different perspective than what i had grown accostomed to in my studies, but a different approach was appreciated.

This book is a cornerstone for any Speech Language Pathologist. All of the hospital placements that I am aware of have this book on the required readings list. It provides a good description and discussion of motor speech disorders and includes research findings. Beware; the text does get dry and tedious at times.

Duffy presents a comprehensive and cogent overview of motor speech disorders using the 'Mayo' classification system. This book is intellectually satisfying and a scholarly work of the highest order. The revision only improves on the first edition. A classic.

My professor described Duffy, Aronson, and Brown as the holy trinity of motor speech. As far as I'm concerned, she's 100% correct.It's a great resource and something I frequently review. It's a nice addition to my bookshelf and it's a strong contributor to my clinical knowledge as it pertains to motor speech disorders.

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.

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.

Book arrived quickly and in excellent condition and is a wonderful resource for speech-language pathologists working in the field of motor speech disorders. Strongly recommend this resource for graduate level preparation as well as for practicing clinicians.

This book contains a lot of information for the beginning/intermediate learner of motor speech disorders. However, is not very easy to read. It can be dry and more wordy than need be.
