4 out of 5 stars A Journey into the Deaf-World   February 15, 2008
Great product A Journey into the Deaf-World. I ordered this book for a class, and received it in a timely manner. The book arrived in time for the assignments that I needed to complete.


4 out of 5 stars good book, one sided though   July 22, 2007
I found this book to have alot of information that was quite interesting. The beginning was very dry and boring, after that very informative yet this book was pretty one-sided. Not a quick read either

I am a CODA and have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. This book goes deep into the heart of numerous issues. I will admit, there are portions of the book that seem to be dry, but within a few paragraphs it becomes riveting. I have learned so much about the world I grew up in and appreciate the honest and straight-forward material. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to learn more about Deaf people, Deaf culture, and deafness.

The book is just filled with so much information regarding the deaf-world.

I have been working with the deaf for over 20 years and had no idea the nuonces of the ASL language.

I recently started talking sign language over again just to catch up.

You will begin to really understand how little the hearing understand about the deaf world.

I highly recommend this book for those who truely want to understand the deaf culture.



5 out of 5 stars A Must-Read for parents of Deaf children!   November 9, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

An excellent book, which spans the subjects of Deaf education, history, culture, communication, language, and social interaction.
Very enlightening as to the aspects of everyday life for a Deaf individual. This book opened my eyes to how it would feel to be Deaf, living in a world controlled (for the most part) by hearing people.
For those studying to be interpreters, or the casually interested reader, this book will be a wonderful addition to your library.
