From Noise to Signal

Résumé du livre

Over 13% of American adults (more than 30 million people) have some degree of hearing loss and yet many people still feel like this is only for older people. Hearing loss affects all ages with infants born deaf. Many adults develop hearing loss slowly or suddenly for a wide range of reasons. Unilateral or single-sided hearing loss is becoming more common with new treatment options.

This book is about my journey of single-sided-deafness.and how I navigated recovery and career. The idea is it will help others in dealing with hearing loss for themselves, friends, or family members.

When I started my hearing journey in 2006, I found it difficult to find resources and support, particularly as someone with single-sided deafness. This book was written to be the book that I needed years ago. I have had the help of many others over the years, and this is my attempt to pay it forward.

The book is intended for people with hearing loss, family members of those with hearing loss, and people interested in getting a pursuing a career in hearing science. This is my personal story and is not meant to serve as medical advice.
