An invaluable collection of studies and research into the psychology, lifestyle, and personal adaptation of deaf children April 6, 2006

Inner Lives Of Deaf Children: Interviews And Analysis by Martha Sheridan (Associate Professor in the Department of Social Work at Gallaudet University) is an informative exploration into the lives and minds of deaf children based upon interviews with seven very different deaf children between the ages of seven and ten. Outstanding for its exclusive perspective and invaluable documentation of a deaf child's struggles in contemporary society, Inner Lives Of Deaf Children is an invaluable and seminal collection of studies and research into the psychology, lifestyle, and personal adaptation of deaf children. Inner Lives Of Deaf Children is very strongly recommended to parents, teachers, social workers, counselors and anyone else involved in the lives of deaf children.
Good info. Easy read. April 13, 2005

Inner lives of deaf children is an informative book that is easy to read. The author, Sheridan, grew up deaf so she has a personal connection to the subject. The book starts out with background information on the deaf community and the author. This helps you understand the deaf world better. Sheridan then explains how she conducted the deaf children's interviews. The bulk of the book consists of Sheridan's interviews of deaf children. She provides the actual transcripts of the interviews, allowing the children to speak for themselves instead of forcing her own interpetation. Throughout the interviews Sheridan provides little summaries that help the reader keep track of the main points along the way. She selected children with different backgrounds and communication methods so that the diversity of the deaf community would be better represented. At the end of the book, Sheridan neatly wraps up the results of her interviews; she provides the reader with a better understanding of what it is like for deaf children to grow up in today's world. I highly recommend this book.
