Summary: Don't waste your money
Comment: Professors, please, please do not assign this book for your students. I'm currently using it for a pediatric audiology class, and I've been disappointed.

I have two major criticisms of this book:

1. It is poorly formatted. It's true that it has headings and some bulleted lists, but they generally are not helpful. There are no bold terms, as are seen in most texts. The index is great, but there is no glossary. The fonts and paragraph style are dense and hard to access. I'm a senior with a 4.0 GPA: I know textbooks.

2. The authors do not include a wide range of studies; they include the ones that support their opinions. Additionally, many of the studies cited are from the 1960s and 1970s, which is practically the Stone Age for a technology-heavy field like audiology. The graphics look similarly dated. This is a fifth edition (2002)--perhaps much of the book reflects the original edition?

I normally keep the textbooks for my major classes, knowing that I'll need them for reference when I am a professional; however, I'm looking forward to selling this one.
