''The Deaf: Their Position In Society And The Provision For Their Education In The United States'' is a comprehensive book written by Harry Best that explores the history and current state of the deaf community in the United States. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the cultural and social identity of the deaf community, the evolution of sign language, and the challenges faced by deaf individuals in education, employment, and other aspects of daily life.Best also delves into the history of deaf education in the United States, tracing the development of schools and programs for the deaf from the early 19th century to the present day. He examines the various approaches to deaf education, including oralism and manualism, and discusses the controversies and debates that have arisen around these methods.Throughout the book, Best emphasizes the importance of recognizing the unique needs and perspectives of the deaf community, and advocates for greater inclusion and accessibility in society. He also highlights the achievements and contributions of deaf individuals in a variety of fields, from literature and art to science and technology.Overall, ''The Deaf: Their Position In Society And The Provision For Their Education In The United States'' is an informative and thought-provoking work that sheds light on an often-overlooked aspect of American society. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history, culture, and experiences of the deaf community, as well as for educators, policymakers, and advocates working to improve the lives of deaf individuals.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
