This review is from: The Deaf Experience: Classics in Language and Education (Hardcover)
My interest in finding this book was heightened as a result of reading "Seeing Voices" by Oliver Sacks. Overcoming the challange of sourcing the text resulted in nothing short of total exhileration as each chapter revealed the dedication, focus, determination and clarity of purpose displayed by these many wonderful people. Reading this book now, at the turn of the century and realizing it is written between 150 and 220 years ago as leading edge thinking is truely a humbling experience. That Franklin Philip and Harlan Lane with the cooperation of Harvard University Press have presented this work for English language readers is indicative of a continuation of the integrity and responsibility to others so kindly exercised in addressing the concerns of less fortunate individuals in earlier times.
