Cochlear Implants: Principles & Practicesdescribes the scientific foundations and the practices that underlie the intervention. In this second edition, an expanded list of contributors addresses the broad range of related topics that now impact the field. We address topics within the auditory sciences, the selection of candidates, techniques of device placement and activation, and assessment and use of the implant as a communication tool. The evolution of implantable technologies provides a rapidly moving target. Thus we have updated orientation to basic concepts, both biological and technological, and review the social and educational issues accompanying the communication change entailed by cochlear implantation. As cochlear implants continue to gain acceptance as a communication tool, our focus should include the settings in which children with implants develop linguistic and social competence and the many factors that impact their success at home and at school. Further, faster and smarter implant processing allows us to adjust upward expectations for adults who seek a broad and meaningful listening experience, as well. The application of implant technology brings with it a responsibility to support the process begun by the introduction of sound through electrical hearing. This second edition of Cochlear Implants: Princi- ples & Practicesidentifies and explores those areas that require our attention to enable cochlear implant users to realize their fullest potential. ix Niparko-FM-i-xii.qxd 1/12/09 12:37 PM Page x
