Summary: From Experience
Comment: As a deaf education major, this book is a manditory item that has helped open doors into the eyes of a Deaf world.
This book clearly defines the feelings and opinions of Deaf people on their treatment and education. I would not recomend this book to a person who is easily offended because it is straight forward in expressing the oppressing feels that hearing people have towards Deaf (sometimes unknowingly).
As a text, this book helped as a wonderful companion to the hundreds of books written by hearing people on D/deafness.

Summary: Enlightening Path Into New World of Deaf Culture
Comment: This book is just excellent to take one into another world, a world that is closed to most of us in hearing world, that of the Deaf.
It has made me sensitive to this other language group and its rich history and culture. The intro to sign to oral education and all its associated parameters and issues was most enlightening, taking one right up to current mainstreaming emphasis.
It is well written, organized, flows well and is just a delight to read. Certainly this is a major resource to understand this neglected and misunderstood group of fascinating humans. This book certainly will raise one's consciousness and passion for this in many cases neglected area of our society.

Summary: A Must Read For Those Interested In The Deaf Community.
Comment: Being Deaf, I like to read everything I can get my hands on about the Deaf Culture and Community. This book was very welcomed into my home and, as I read it, I found that it is quite insightful for those who are not directly linked to the community.
Covering a lot of information on growing up deaf (usually to hearing parents), it also goes on to give you an idea of things that the Deaf experience and must endure...things that most hearing people are unaware of.
If you are interested in being involved with the Deaf community, this book is a must read. However, anyone who reads this will not be disappointed.
