1 out of 5 stars Outrageously Overpriced   November 1, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This text is basic at best and outrageously overpriced. The description implies that it is comprehensive. There is nothing in the text that cannot be found on the internet for free. It is easy to compair this text with the others listed and see that it is seven times more expensive than most all other sign langage texts. I bought it thinking it would provide what was not readily available.Buyer Beware!!


4 out of 5 stars Just what the title says   October 8, 2000
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

This book is a collection of technical terms, mainly to allow English-speaking instructors to teach deaf pupils. It is conveniently organized into various topics (English/literature, Social Studies, Science, Math, Health, Education, Non-Academics/vocational, and General Vocabulary). It might be less useful in non-educational situations, as many of the signs are "initialized," or variations of more standard signs that have been made with an alphabet handshape to indicate a specific English word. Many deaf people are not English-oriented and would not necessarily be familiar with these signs.
