The second edition of this guide offers a readable comprehensive summary of everything a parent or teacher would want to know about raising and educating a deaf child. It covers topics ranging from what it means to be deaf to the many ways that the environments of home and school can influence a deaf child's chances for success in academic and social circles. The new edition provides expanded coverage of cochlear implants spoken language mental health and educational issues relating to deaf children enrolled in integrated and separate settings. Marschark makes sense of the most current educational and scientific literature and also talks to deaf children their parents and deaf adults about what is important to them. Raising and Educating a Deaf Child is not a how to book or one with all the right answers for raising a deaf child; rather it is a guide through the conflicting suggestions and programs for raising deaf children as well as the likely implications of taking one direction or the other.
