I really enjoyed this book not just for the important message that it imparts on us, but also learning about the interesting life of the author.  The aviation industry sounds pretty cool... well except for overzealous doctors of course.This book points out some of the fundamental things about discrimination that most don't even think about.  It is not just the people who knowingly perform this discrimination who are guilty... but the people who stand by and do nothing while this discrimination happens around them are just as guilty.  They are enablers. Bullying or discrimination by proxy if you will.  This applies to not just people with limited or no hearing, but anyone who is discriminated against or bullied because they are deemed "different". People fear what they do not understand - education is key to alleviating this.Tara does a great job of relaying this through her personal experiences.  It makes for an interesting read and can make you stop and think, "Have I ever treated someone this way?  Even unintentionally?"If you go by the philosophy of simply treating others the way you would have others treat you, you cannot go wrong.I recommend giving this book a read!
