''The Inventor of the Numeral-Type for China'' is a book written by Constance F. Gordon-Cumming that tells the story of a man named Robert Hart who invented a new method of teaching illiterate Chinese people to read and write. Hart’s invention was the numeral-type, a system that used numbers instead of traditional Chinese characters to represent words and phrases. This system was specifically designed to be easy to learn for both sighted and blind people, allowing them to quickly become literate in Chinese. The book provides a detailed account of Hart’s life and work, as well as the impact that his invention had on Chinese society. It is an informative and engaging read for anyone interested in the history of literacy and education in China.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
