Sally Austen and Susan Crocker
This book looks at the varying theoretical approaches to the psychology of deafness: systemic, bio-psycho-social, psychodynamic, medical and cognitive neuropsychological models. It links clinical theory and practice to provide a comprehensive understanding of the deaf mental health field. Deafness in Mind discusses the taboo subject of cochlear implants and considers prevention alongside prevalence. Thus approaching various political views on deafness, this book brings together current services and new directions, providing a definitive text in the psychology of mental health and deafness.
