Sounds of Silence

1998
"What Is It Like To Hear a Hand?" This is the question this wonderful web site tries to answer through its use of scientific information, comments, and letters from deaf people. The overall reason for this web site is to educate hearing people about deafness and the deaf community. The causes of deafness, what sign language is, and how to live with deafness are explained in full. An excellent resource for students and teachers.
