2.0 out of 5 stars It's better than nothing..., June 6, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ga and Sk Etiquette: Guidelines for Telecommunications in the Deaf Community (Paperback)

This book contains some valuable information, however some information is dated (it hasn't been revised since publication). Out of the fifty-one pages, half are cartoon-type illustrations and some pages contain only a few sentences. It fails to touch on some major points such as the relay-service and tty answering machines. This book might a good investment for a company that has to train people to use a tty on a regular basis. Even then it is a bit tedious shuffling through the pages for an amount of knowledge that could be contained on a sheet of looseleaf.

5.0 out of 5 stars GA/SK Knowledge, November 9, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Ga and Sk Etiquette: Guidelines for Telecommunications in the Deaf Community (Paperback)

A great resource for anyone wanting to use a TTY in the appropriate manner with deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. Many stores have TTYs for the deaf and hard-of-hearing to use, but do not know who to use them theirselves.
Great !
