Not First Choice September 2, 2003 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Although this book shares some good information and common sense, if you yourself are dealing with a hearing loss (as the book suggests), you will not find an unbiased opinion here. Stressing oralism (lipreading and listening with assistive listening devices), there is no talk of sign language whatsoever herein. If you're losing your hearing, but vow to never admit you're deaf (when the loss becomes that severe) and vow that you will stay in the "hearing world" at all costs, this is the book for you to read as you live in denial. However, if you are truly open to learning about every option offered you as a hard of hearing or deaf person, don't waste your time. That's just this deafie's opinion. :o)
