ABOUT THE BOOK
This new book fills a void in the literature, as there are currently no advanced texts on audiologic rehabilitation, none that reviews the current state of the art on the level required for education of doctoral-level audiologists, and none that addresses the specific needs of the adult population.
With the rapid evolution of this field, driven by ever-changing technology and an aging population which is driving both advances and demand for audiologic services and devices, the need for this text is abundantly clear. Its coverage is wide and draws on an international authorship to present and discuss definitions of audiologic rehabilitation, an overview of the area, psychosocial impact of hearing loss, assessment strategies, current technologies, treatment methodologies, research needs, and special issues in audiologic rehabilitation.
The book will admirably serve those in clinical practice requiring an overview of the current state of the art, as well as graduate level students.
