Sandlin Author Index 279 Subject Index 287 = PREFACE linical approaches to the selec- tion, fitting, and verification of hearing aid devices used by individuals with acoustic impairments often have appeared contra- dictory and less than absolute in meeting the needs of persons who use amplifica- tion.<\/p>\n<p>This text is not intended to offer a res- olution to all of the differences existing in decision-making processes regarding hear- ing aids, but rather to present ideas and clinical experiences of those professionals who deserve to be heard. In truth, there is no one thought or clinical procedure presented by any one in- dividual or group that has captured the at- tention of all practitioners involved in fit- ting hearing aids.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>This is a short excerpt from the opening of &ldquo;&rdquo; by Unknown, quoted for review and introduction purposes.
