Reviews

“The study of sign language has enriched our understanding of what it means to be human.  The editors of this book have selected leaders in the field to share their knowledge and tools with a growing community.” Mark Aronoff, SUNY

“This book is required reading for anyone conducting research within the deaf community. New and experienced sign language researchers will discover extremely valuable information about the methodologies, techniques, databases, and other tools that are now available for use across a wide range of linguistic fields.” Karen Emmorey, San Diego State University
