Book Description
Cambridge, MA, U.S.A.: Harvard University Press, 2000 FINE 12th printing Trade Paperback, 6" x 9', 134 pages, illustrations. No markings of any kind, nearly perfect covers, as-new interiors. Through the use of folklore, apocryphal stories, poetry, jokes, and discussion of split factions and advocacy organizations, Padden and Humphries gracefully explain how deaf culture works, what it means to its members, how they define themselves within it, and how they interact with the world outside. Providing rare insight into this universe of silence, this volume conveys the joy and satisfaction that many deaf people have in their lives and shows that being deaf is not a handicap the way most hearing people think. (Booklist). Soft Cover.
