About this title

Synopsis

As a child with a deaf father, Graeme Clark dreamed that one day he would find a way to help deaf people hear. Here he tells his story of his vision of creating a bionic ear, including the lack of funding for such a radical idea and opposition from the deaf community, who said it shouldn't be done. He reveals the human dramas, including the trials and struggles of the first human "guinea pigs" and details the experiences of children and adults hearing again, or hearing for the first time.

About the Author

Professor Graeme Clark is the founder and leader of the Cochelar implant Team at the University of Melbourne. The son of a profoundly deaf man, he has devoted his professional life to helping people to hear. Clark and his Bionic Ear Institute are now acknowledged as the world leaders in this area of research and development. For his work Graeme Clark has been chosen by Time magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the South Pacific in the 20th century. He was made an Officer of the Order of Australia in 1983 and has received many honours from the international and Australian scientific and medical communities.
