{"product_id":"hearing-without-ears-9781439242452","title":"Hearing Without Ears","description":"This story covers the author's journey from the time she fell into a coma and woke up totally deaf, through her surgery to get an \"electronic ear\" (more correctly called a cochlear implant) and the ongoing effort to learn how to use it to hear again. There are many problems with substitute hearing, but they do fade--like background noise--to a place of lesser importance. Electronic hearing may not be perfect, but it's a whole lot better than no hearing at all.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Linda Knapp\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Booksurge Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/21\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 162\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.25w x 0.35d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439242452\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcross most of her lifetime as a hearing person, Linda Knapp was a high school\/college English teacher, senior writer at Apple Computer, columnist for The Seattle Times and McClatchy-Tribune news services, published writer of education books andnovels, and committed wife and mother.
