Language development, and the challenges it can present for individuals who are deaf or hard-of-hearing have long been a focus of research, theory, and practice in D/deaf studies and deaf education. Over the past 150 years, advances in the acquisition and development of language competencies and skills have been increasing rapidly. This volume addresses many of those accomplishments as well as remaining challenges and new questions that have arisen from multiple perspectives: theoretical, linguistic, social-emotional, neuro-biological, and socio-cultural.
