Understanding Deaf Culture: In Search of Deafhood
Paddy Ladd
This book assesses the concepts of Deaf culture. It illustrates the pitfalls which have been created for Deaf communities by the medical concept of 'deafness' and contrasts this with a new concept of "Deafhood", a process by which every Deaf child, family and adult implicitly explains their existence in the world to themselves and each other.
