Reviews

""I found it written in a style which was interesting, understandable and easy to read. The illustrative case studies certainly bring the subject to life... The book introduces a wide range of ethical issues in a way which is eminently readable. Specific chapters will certainly be of interest to particular groups of readers, for example teachers of the deaf and other professionals involved with the education of deaf children. This book is not heavy going and in my view is worth having a look at!"" ENT NEWS
