The field of deaf studies, language, and education has grown
dramatically over the past forty years. From work on the
linguistics of sign language and parent-child interactions to
analyses of school placement and the the mapping of brain function
in deaf individuals, research across a range of disciplines has
greatly expanded not just our knowledge of deafness and the deaf,
but also the very origins of language, social interaction, and
thinking. In this updated edition of the landmark original volume,
a range of international experts present a comprehensive overview
of the field of deaf studies, language, and education. Written for
students, practitioners, and researchers, The Oxford Handbook of
Deaf Studies, Language, and Education, Volume 1, is a uniquely
ambitious work that has altered both the theoretical and applied
landscapes. Pairing practical information with detailed analyses of
what works, why, and for whom-all while banishing the paternalism
that once dogged the field-this first of two volumes features
specially-commissioned, updated essays on topics including:
language and language development, hearing and speech perception,
education, literacy, cognition, and the complex cultural, social,
and psychological issues associated with deaf and hard-of-hearing
individuals. The range of these topics shows the current state of
research and identifies the opportunites and challenges that lie
ahead. Combining historical background, research, and strategies
for teaching and service provision, the two-volume Oxford Handbook
of Deaf Studies, Language, and Education stands as the benchmark
reference work in the field of deaf studies.
