内容説明

People who first encounter sign language often ask if all deaf people sign the same language and are surprised to learn that there are different sign languages in different nations worldwide, as well as variations of these languages. One variation, Black American Sign Language (ASL), has been recognized for years as a distinct form of sign language but only through anecdotal reports. This volume and its accompanying DVD present the first empirical study to fill in the linguistic gaps about Black ASL.
