Description

Understanding Deaf Culture : In Search of Deafhood, Paperback by Ladd, Paddy, ISBN 1853595454, ISBN-13 9781853595455, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Ladd (deaf studies, U. of Bristol, UK) addresses the deaf community as well as the radical and progressive communities who have, he asserts, failed to recognize the marginalization of disabled people even as they champion the rights of other marginal populations. 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 ()

  2. Book was new (as advertised) and priced fairly. I thought it could have been shipped by a more expeditious means for about the same money, but it was well packaged and arrived in good shape. The "slowness" in delivery was due to the delivery service the seller chose to use and was not due to a lack of timeliness on the seller's part. I would be glad to buy from this merchant again and I would recommend them to other eBay book shoppers.

  3. This unique book was priced quite reasonable. The book was advertised as new and arrived in mint condition and in the highest authentic hard cover quality. It Packaging was very good when mailed. I also find communicating with the seller during the shipping process, which was a bit of a wait for a very hard to find book, was very prompt and inspired trust. I highly recommend this seller and will return for future purchases.
