Communication Without Speech

AUGMENTATIVE AND ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATION AROUND THE WORLD

By Anne Warrick

 

                   The first book in the ISAAC Series, Communication Without Speech, directly addresses the beginning AAC needs of people from multiple cultures, who have limited resources. The focus is on using low tech strategies to enable children and adults with complex communication needs to access their first and other languages so they can participate in their families, schools and communities. With examples from developing areas around the world.



Beneath The Surface
CREATIVE EXPRESSIONS OF AUGMENTED COMMUNICATORS

Edited by Michael B. Williams and Carole J. Krezman

Beneath The Surface Book     

Beneath the Surface: Creative Expressions of Augmented Communicators, an ISAAC Series Book, is bursting with a diverse range of creativity. The creative works of 51 authors and artists from around the world cogently express their ideas and feelings within their paintings, drawings, poetry, stories, plays and essays-many in full-color. The contributors come from 12 countries. "This book is proof," say co-editor Michael B. Williams, who also uses AAC, "that we are not merely breathing blobs of flesh, but truly human beings who are capable of feelings and creative thought."

People with complex communication needs can read the book with pride. The second ISAAC Series Book is a "must read" for AAC professionals to gain perspective and insight into the lives, experiences and feeligs of people with complex communication needs.
