description: The Third Edition of this popular book brings up to date the material that so many readers found helpful in the previous editions. The entire text has been rewritten and reorganized with revised chapters focusing on current concepts and practices in audio logic screening and evaluation, development of the listening function, development of speech, development of language, the role of parents, parent education, mainstreaming of the limitedhearing child, and program modifications for the severely learning disabled child. This edition retains the description of the normal development of spoken language and the detailed curriculum and parent guidance for young children with a hearing loss, but the success of this program is now detailed in a new chapter, 'Thirty Years Later.' Also included are additional new chapters on auditory assessment, sensory aids, cochlear implants, and a discussion of the change from acoupedics to auditory verbal programs. Audiologists, speechlanguage pathologists, and special education and deaf education teachers will benefit from the revision of this volume, but it will prove useful also to parents, pediatricians, and otologists.
