This practical guide looks at the use of AT/AD (assistive technologies/assistive devices) to help those with disabilities perform functions that otherwise might be difficult or impossible. These include mobility devices such as walkers, wheelchairs, and mobile vans; as well as hardware, software, and peripherals; talking ATMs; and strobe light alarm systems. Featuring 100 black-and-white photographs, the book includes real-life examples of how people with disabilities are successful utilizing AT, and it presents strategies for dealing with the emotional issues related to AT/AD.
