Supporting Deaf Culture Whilst Looking for a Cure: Conflicting Responses to Deafness

Other minority cultures in the west seem to be largely safe from mainstream discussions of eradication and interventions which attempt to normalise them. At the very least when the discussions do arise they raise controversy.

This short book will investigate the attitudes of the western world towards Deaf culture and examine the possible conflicts with treating deafness as a culture while at the same time researching its cure.
