"This book is packed with up-to-date, well-researched information. The writing is easygoing, humorous, and perceptive. Anyone interested in hearing loss is fortunate to have a writer of Katherine's caliber to tell it like it is and wake us up to a quality of life issue that has been misunderstood and ignored for far too long." --Brenda Battat, former executive director, Hearing Loss Association of America "Pitch perfect, extraordinary for its richness of both voice and head spinning detail." --Peggy Ellertsen, M.Ed., C.C.

C.-S.L.P., auditory rehab specialist, and board member of HLAA "Great book which should be required reading for adults with hearing loss, their friends, and family. Professionals should seriously consider providing this book to their clients/patients." --Geoff Plant, Executive Director of the Hearing Rehabilitation Foundation, Somerville, MA "Katherine has written thoughtfully and thoroughly about the complex workplace issues people with hearing loss must navigate every day. While Katherine and I come at it from different perspectives -- I work in the hearing loss field and am completely open about my hearing loss while she worked in a field where good hearing was assumed to be a prerequisite for being able to perform the essential duties of one's job - the diversity of our perspectives supports a more robust conversation about how best to manage a difficult situation when there is no one correct answer and one size does not fit all.

I am so glad people are at least having the conversation!" --Valerie Stafford-Mallis, Business Development Manager, Alternative Communication Services (ACS) LLC, and Member of Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) Board of Trustees.
