Deaf in America: Voices from a Culture

Deaf in America: Voices from a Culture

Carol Padden

Carol Padden and Tom Humphries employ the capitalized "Deaf" to refer to deaf people who share a natural language―American Sign Language.

Written by authors who are themselves Deaf, this unique book illuminates the life and culture of Deaf people from the inside, through their everyday talk, their shared myths, their art and performances, and the lessons they teach one another.
