He describes the world of deaf people as an identifiable culture with a collective worldview and a distinctive language, and he explores the history of deaf communities, presenting it as a "counter-narrative" to the dominant discourse. He then describes the cultural strategies that deaf people have used to navigate their world. Distributed in the US by UTP Distribution. Annotation (c) Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
