It has been expanded into two volumes, and reflects changes in technology and telecommunications. Chapters 11-21 For Hearing People Only Chapter 11 - I heard that there are new, nonracist signs for Korean, Chinese, and Japanese that don’t involve reference to slanting eyes. Would you please describe these, and any other new signs regarding ethnicity or nationality that come to mind?

I've read this book one and a half times. The first time I took ASL in high school, we read certain chapters. At that time, I hated the book. Honestly, I was offended by a lot of the stereotypes the writer used in connection to hearing people.
The first time I read the entire book was a few years later, in my college ASL classes. It was not assigned reading, but I decided to take another crack at it.
The book is made up of chapters based on questions hearing people supposedly ask deaf people. Som...more

Lots of information. Wants editing.

The illustrations (by a Deaf artist) were clever and beautiful and evocative and sometimes flat-out hilarious. (The deaf man being approached by a thief? hahaha.)
The rest, well ... Most of it I already know; and bits made me cringe (it's an insult to deaf culture if a hearie learns sign? oh, please.)
The rest made me cringe in a different way. It's a strange and embarrassing experience to come up against a culture alien to your own, and to flounder there is, um, a bit humbling.

Very passionate writing, and for good reason, but may seem startling coming into the book expecting a more formal, sociological text. Sometimes redundant because each chapter is a response to a reader question, but by the end of it that didn't feel like such a bad quality; it meant you really got it into your brain a sliver of understanding of Deaf culture and the Deaf viewpoint on the hearing world. The tone of this book comes on strong and doesn't try to protect the feelings of the hearing rea...more

This book is great. There's so much no one ever thinks find out about the deaf community.... So much that we just assume...
Matthew Moore clearly has a distaste for Hearing people and shows this throughout the book. If you can get past the obvious prejudice then you will gain a good basis for Deaf culture.
A great intro to Deaf culture. Sure to clear up at least the *most* embarrassing things you never knew were the-wrong-thing-to-say.

So I read this book to find out whether or not it is something I'd recommend to my hearing friends who would like to learn more in-depth information about the Deaf world.
None of the information within was new to me, but I did appreciate that it was laid out in a clear, succinct, Q&A style. I like that people can go straight to whatever chapter/question they are interested in without having to read cover-to-cover. My only complaint is that some of the information is out of date, but to be cl...more

You have questions and they have answers! It was so helpful for me and some people asked some really good questions. Other... um, well, others did not. I would definitely recommend that you pick it up if you get a chance!

Awesome intro to Deaf culture. It’s pretty long and gets repetitive. It could’ve been shorter and been just as good.
It's okay a lot of the info is old just watch YouTube videos about deaf culture made by deaf people.

I wish I had had the whole book, and I'd really like to read a newer edition.
2.5 stars.
The actual content in this book was interesting. Deaf culture is fascinating, certainly, but this book had an odd way of presenting information. Rather than covering topics in depth, For Hearing People Only glossed over issues that I would have liked to have seen explored. There were also texts and people mentioned in this book to support a claim, but the names and titles all get jumbled together because their role in Deaf culture is hardly explained, if at all. All in all, I gleaned s...more

For Hearing People Only Summary
This book is great... Each chapter is an independent question that has actually been asked of the authors, by a well meaning hearing person, and most of these questions I have wondered myself! Some are a little absurd, such as 'Is braille the written form of ASL?'. But mostly they are very good questions. I have found it a good conversation starter and I run around asking my deaf friends if they agree and if they have had similar experiences. I'm going to buy a copy and send it to my parents! I...more
I learned about the Deaf experience from the perspective of some Deaf people. All Deaf people are unique just as all Hearing people are unique, thus it is difficult to peg them all in the same hole. At first I was offended by some of the comments and statements in the book, but after reviewing the book a second time, I wasn't as offended. I felt that there were some gross generalizations about Hearing people that need to be addressed. Overall I felt very enlightened, and this book was very usefu...more

Interesting book. Contains questions from hearing people addressed to Deaf people. Good insight provided about the Deaf culture. I did feel as though a lot of battering occurred regarding hearing people. Yes they did treat the deaf community inappropriately (and some still do unfortunately). However, there are many of us hearing people that want to communicate with the Deaf community because we find them to be intelligent and interesting people with a rich culture and beautiful language. I would...more

I loved this book! It was required reading for a Deaf Culture course I took in college and this book made me want to keep reading even after I had finished the assigned chapters. It is broken up into smaller sections that cover important topics. If you are interested in learning more about the Deaf World, I strongly recommend this book.
Oct 13, 2011Karen rated it it was amazing
Each of the 60 chapters deals with a question that hearing people have had about the deaf or about Deaf culture. There is so much I didn't know -- and hadn't even thought of before this. The book covers everything from Deaf history (including the long period of suppression of American Sign Language) to Deaf attitudes about aspects of hearing culture. A very informative and helpful book.

If you deal with the deaf or are interested in the deaf community. This is a must read. Clearly and absolutely written for the hearing, this offers those of us who can hear a rare insight into another world.

The information in this text was just amazing to learn. The authors could have done a better job writing, however. It seemed to be pretty dry.
I'd recommend this book for anybody interested in studying the deaf community.

I think this book was very informative. One thing I would love to see is a newer version. This talks about technology being expensive and out of reach for most.... Well today almost everyone has a cell phone and computer. Newer version would be AMAZING!!!

This is the first Deaf Culture book we ever read, so it holds a special place in our heart. It was loaned to us by a woman we met at a mall Silent Social. We promptly devoured it! Our eyes were opened, and we have never looked back.
Great insight into the Deaf community.
a little dramatic at times, but overall very insightful.
I'm very interested in ASL and Deaf culture and I'm currently taking it as part of my foreign language requirement at SJSU.
Very helpful insights into Deaf culture. Will be helpful for work with our new client.
