Understanding a disability

Hearing loss is a problem wherein the body cannot hear as well because it is DAMAGED! You can't fix the damage done to the cochlea where the damage has occurred -- instead, people need to come to terms and learn to do the best with what hearing they have left. This book is one of several that are great at helping people understand. Hearing Aids -- sold from a good competent audiologist -- is the key to understanding and making adjustments to maximize use of what hearing is left.

helpful to me! Confirms what I know.

One of the prior reviewers of this book was very negative. I disagree! As a hearing aid user for more than 40 years, I think this book is a good summary of the information that I need and have bought copies of it to educate my family and friends. I suspect the unhappy user was never correctly fitted with an adequate hearing aid and feels used and abused. I would have also been in that frame of mind if I had purchased my aids from the wrong audiologist. This book will help educate potential hearing aid users (and their families) to realistic expectations and hopefully lead them to good audiologists.

Just what the doctor ordered

An excellent book. Rezen has a way of getting straight to the point, while remaining very sympathetic to both the person with the hearing loss, and those who communicate/live with that person. It is a very helpful, clear, well-written book that I cannot recommend highly enough to you.

Read this book and save yourself a lot of effort

It is very difficult to obtain clear, unbiased information about hearing loss, and many of the books I read just confused things. But this book really puts everything you need to know together in one place, and the author is clearly knowing and compassionate. If you want to do something about your hearing loss, I would say that this is the place to start.
