• Suzanne C. Purdy, University of Auckland, New Zealand, International Journal of Audiology (2008):
  "Professors Fred Bess and Judy Gravel have brought together many years of pediatric audiology experience to develop a collection of seminal articles that form the basis for modern clinical practice in pediatric audiology.... This book should be a core text not only for students seeking a deep understanding of pediatric audiology but also for experienced audiologists working with children."
