One of our most successful and widely used texts for audiologists and individuals in the hearing science industry, we proudly present the new third edition of Foundations of Aural Rehabilitation. A readable, comprehensive resource, it covers topics such as identification and diagnosis of hearing and other hearing-related communication challenges, patient and family counseling, selection and fitting of listening devices, communication training, literacy promotion, and much more. General information is provided in the early sections, while the latter half of the book focuses on adult and child populations, respectively. New to this edition are chapters on adults who have tinnitus, aural rehabilitation plans for infants and toddlers, and aural rehabilitation plans for children and teenagers. Thoroughly revised and updated, with more photos and illustrations throughout, this edition is the most comprehensive edition yet.
