ABOUT THE BOOK
An extension of the original published by the late Dr. Daniel Ling in 1976, Speech and the Hearing-Impaired Child, Second Edition more closely explores the development of speech in the context of spoken language. It
incorporates informal strategies for promoting spoken
language development that are appropriate for use with modern technology such as digital hearing aids and cochlear implants. At the same time, it preserves descriptions of techniques for developing speech in children for whom digital hearing aids and cochlear implants do not or cannot compensate adequately for particular levels of hearing loss. Considerable emphasis is placed on the ongoing evaluation of speech in the context of spoken
language and part of this emphasis is provided by the presentation of a new and user-friendly evaluation format.
