Following the success of the third editions of For Hearing People Only, Deaf Life Press is publishing For Hearing People Only, 4th edition, expanding on questions and information on common Deaf issues. It’s written especially for those with no background in Deaf issues: parents of newly-identified deaf children, students taking credit courses at colleges/university (in American Sign Language, Interpreter programs, or Deaf Studies), and casual readers curious about Deaf issues, culture, language, traditions, and history.
No jargon, no gobbledygook—just clear and simple answers to some of the most commonly asked questions.
Topics covered include Deaf history, American Sign Language, foreign sign languages, the Oralist movement and oral schools, residential schools for the deaf, literacy, crab theory, interpreters, hearing aids and cochlear implants, captioning, education, employment, social protocol, and family issues.
For Hearing People Only uses a Q/A format. Each of the 220 chapters is illustrated, and focuses on a single question. There are several mini-quizzes, a bibliography, and index.
For Hearing People Only makes a perfect gift for friends, relatives, neighbors, teachers, students, anyone who has a Deaf person in their life or is simply Deaf-curious.
