MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK

Main description:

With the rate of cochlear implantation reaching 80 per cent to 90 per cent of all deaf children, some as young as five months old, this volume presents the varying reactions around the globe to the high rate of this surgery. These views contrast sharply with the medical perspective of deafness overwhelmingly promoted through the media and by the cochlear implantation industry. At the same time, the contributors aim to disrupt the binaries that have long dominated the field of deafness.
