Raising and Educating a Deaf Child

Mark Marschark provides a guide to the many and varied models and suggestions for raising a deaf child. He does not claim to have all the “right” answers, but explores the possible implications of the choices available. This book is a comprehensive summary of everything a parent or teacher would want to know about growing up deaf, including insights into the medical causes of hearing loss, technological aids, how home and school environments can influence success, and Deaf culture. As well as drawing on educational and scientific literature, Marschark also talks to deaf adults, deaf children and their parents to find out what is important to them. An extremely useful resource for parents and teachers alike.
