Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A wonderful overview of relay for the first time consumer.   May 20, 1999
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have been involved with relay for the last 15 years and this is the first book I have encountered that provides a broad perspective on how to use relay for the first time consumer. The book gently encourages anyone who is not able to use their phone, due to a hearing loss or a speech disability to explore relay as an option to allow communciation via the phone. I strongly encourage everyone to read this book to better understand the tools that are available to open phone line accessibility to all people.


5 out of 5 stars Great for people with disabilities who use telecommunication   January 23, 1999
This impressively comprehensive yet concise resource provides essential information on telecommunications and disability that will be highly useful to professionals, AT users, and families. I will use it with my clients in clinic, and will recommend it to my students in university courses. The text even covers potential uses of and resources for Morse code in AAC/AT and telecommunications for persons with sever disabilities! Overall: an interesting and clear presentation of much useful info...a must for my professional bookshelf


5 out of 5 stars This book is a concise, complete resource guide.   December 18, 1998
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am impressed at the scope and depth of coverage in this book -- even coverage of how Morse Code can be used by persons with severe disabilities to aid their telecommunication efforts. I recommend this book highly to anyone interested in telecommunications, disability studies, assistive technology, and/or augmentative & alternative communication.
