Excerpt from The Deaf Child: A Manual for Teachers and School DoctorsI'r will be a great step forward when the physician takes part in the work for defectives who have hitherto been entrusted wholly to teachers in schools. I have heard of children who were under medical treatment and were allowed to remain in ignorance for years that is, the doctor tried to do something for the diseased organ, but he gave the parents no practical advice about the deaf child. The problems of deafness are deeper and more complex, if not more important, than those of blindness. Deafness is a much worse misfortune. For it means the loss of the most vital stimulus - the sound of the voice that brings language, sets thought astir, and keeps us in the intellectual company of man.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
