Deaf in America: Voices From A Culture

Borrow

The goal of the book is to collect, organize and interpret examples of the cultural life of Deaf people.  There is a preference for materials that are unusual or unexpected, that run counter to the more familiar ways of talking about Deaf people.  The materials are organized in a way that not only challenges the traditional orientation of describing Deaf people but contributes to ideas about human culture.
