5.0 out of 5 stars Super Book, April 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Assistive Technologies: Principles and Practice (Hardcover)

This is one of the best books on Assistive Technology that I have read. Sue Hussey establishes herself as the leader of this field. The whole world wonders what will she write next? The illustrations, apparently done by her talented brother, are also incredible.
