"Pediatric Amplification: Enhancing Auditory Access" is a comprehensive resource that focuses specifically on children who wear hearing aids, who often do not receive the same emphasis in research as children with cochlear implants. The text is based on a theoretical framework that hearing aids can normalize the auditory access of children with hearing loss. This theoretical framework serves as the basis for providing clinical care to children with hearing aids and their families. The content is organized around optimizing amplification to provide audibility, promoting consistent hearing aid use, and providing consistent and high-quality linguistic input for children who wear hearing aids. The text is unique in its focus on the clinical management of amplification in children using cutting edge research based on the needs of children. It includes chapters dedicated to hearing assistance technology and case studies to illustrate the concepts presented." Pediatric Amplification" is a professional resource for clinicians and audiologists who serve children who wear hearing aids and their families, and can also be used in graduate courses for students in audiology, deaf education, and speech-language pathology.

Long-time fashion editor and style maven Elizabeth Walker navigates fashion devotees through an inspired selection of images showcasing the recurring themes that define the essence of style. Following the success of Style Book: Fashionable Inspirations, this volume offers a fresh take on the iconic patterns and prints that are renewed and recycled year after year, from the runways to street wear. Fashion editor Elizabeth Walker draws on eclectic influences from around the world: embroidered kimonos from Japan, batiks from Indonesia, paisley from India and France, animal prints, bold op-art geometrics in black and white, bright kangas from Kenya, Hawaiian-print hibiscus, or bold splashes of color combining Schiaparelli pink with tangerine and turquoise. From Grace Jones in a zebra-print jumpsuit to a flapper s scalloped swimsuit, or from Marc Jacobs in a Mickey Mouse T-shirt to Nicolas Cage in a snakeskin jacket, you can take your cue to liven up the gray workday commute in a jewel-toned ikat print or a jaunty African tribal fabric. The striped mariner s pullover that looked great on Picasso is still in style, and houndstooth checkered trousers will turn heads and add bounce to your stride. The images selected here featuring both celebrities and more proletariat fashionistas spotlight the striking prints and patterns that add panache to any look."
