      Used Good(1 Copy): New 078646397X About the Book The deaf community in the West has endured radical changes in the past centuries. This work of history tracks the changes both in the education of and the social world of deaf people through the years. Topics include attitudes toward the deaf in Europe and America and the evolution of communication and language. Of particular interest is the way in which deafness has been increasingly humanized, rather than medicalized or pathologized, as it was in the past. Successful contributions to the deaf and non-deaf world by deaf individuals are also highlighted. About the Author Melvia M. Nomeland, who is Deaf, of Deaf parents, has taught Deaf students for 25 years. She is a co-developer of the Deaf Studies Curriculum Guide currently in schools and has contributed articles to a variety of publications. Ronald E. Nomeland is a professor emeritus at Gallaudet University where for 35 years he was a professor and department chair.
