Description

"A clear, practical book describing the psychological and sociological implications of different types of deafness and the problems experienced by deaf people with various mental or physical disabilities, covering both the clinical and service aspects of working with deaf people. Denmark, Honorary Consultant Psychiatrist at a hospital in the UK, assumes a British readership (with reference to some English laws) but most of the information should be relevant to the American reader. Contains several helpful appendices and a glossary, but no index." -Booknews Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
