Saying aural rehabilitation encompasses all the processes involved in allowing people to hear, Tye-Murray presents an evidence-based approach to the discipline, and reviews the scientific principles that underlie much of what occurs in clinical practice. The textbook serves a course in audiology, speech-language pathology, the education of deaf children, and similar courses for junior or senior undergraduate students or first-year graduate students. Among the topics are assessing hearing acuity and speech recognition, audiovisual speech perception and speech-reading training, assessing conversational fluency and communication difficulties, older adults, and detecting and confirming hearing loss in children.
