Reviews the monograph "Die praktische Anwendung der Sprachphysiologie beim ersten Leseunterricht" by H. Gutzmann (1898). The monograph is divided into four parts: first, an historical review of the opinions of educational writers concerning the place of the physiology of speech in school instruction; second, the psychological justification for the study of speech physiology, and its practicability as a school method; third, the hygienic value of a physiological method in teaching to read; and fourth, the practical application of physiological principles in school instruction. The psychological justification of this method lies in the nature of the processes involved in learning to speak or to read. The combined process involves the activity of five brain-centers with their respective tracts: (1) The perceptive centre and auditory nerve tract; (2) the motor centre and nervous tract connecting it with the mechanism of speech; (3) the visual perception-centre of the movements of speech and writing; (4) the kinaesthetic perception-centre which makes aware of the adjustments of the organs involved in speaking and writing; and (5) the motor centre by which the movements of the hand in writing are produced and directed. The method has been successfully used with young children and with stutterers to the number of nearly 400 by the elder Gutzmann. The hygienic value of the physiological method of instruction in reading will be found in the correction of a long list of defects in speech and the prevention of a still greater number. The author does not propose the substitution of a radically new method in teaching, but only the introduction of a rational system of training in vocalization and articulation, in connection with the use of illustrated primers and photographs of the positions of the vocal organs in articulation. A plate of twelve such pictures accompanies the monograph.
