Reviews
"I recommend Deafness in Mind, not just for health and social care professionals working with Deaf people, but for all in order to benefit from a deeper understanding and appreciation of the issues and added complexities that can and do arise for Deaf people in relation to mental and other illnesses. I can guarantee, like me, you'll find yourself again and again thinking, 'I never thought of that'." (Central & North West London NHS Foundation, 2012)
"...this is a book well worth dipping into by BACDA members - some chapters are fascinating, some are excellent and applicable..." (British Association of Community Doctors in Audiology Newsletter, April 2005)
"...I strongly recommend it as an addition to...reading lists and the clinician's book shelf." (Bulletin, July 2005)
