The author considers that the essential physical mechanism of stammering is nothing more than an undue amount of energy overflowing into the muscles of speech, i.e. the stammerer simply over-energizes his speech.
On the psychical side the author seems to lay most stress on the inferiority complex as a factor leading to stammering, but he fails to indicate the intrinsic relationship between the two.
He advocates psycho-analysis in cases of stammering.
