2nd Edition of "Computer Resources for Persons with Disabilities"

COMPUTER RESOURCES FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
Fully Revised 2nd Edition
The Alliance for Technology Access (ATA), a national nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of children and adults with disabilities through life-enhancing computer technologies, proudly released the second edition of Computer Resources for People with Disabilities.
The book contains up-to-date and comprehensive information regarding guidelines for defining needs, developing a technology plan, building a supportive team, getting funding and making technology-related decisions, legislative information, and a "toolbox" describing hardware and software currently available in assistive technology. An up-to-date list of support groups, publications, professional association and training institutions with e-mail, web and postal addresses are also included.
The second edition offers the latest developments in the field of assistive technology and came about by popular demand and the high accolades received by the first edition, released in 1994. Since then, many colleges and universities have added this book to their lists of required reading in their special education and assistive technology programs.
LINC contributed to the book and many of LINC's members are featured in photographs and case histories.
The book is available for $17.95 in paperback and $22.95 in a spiral-bound format through Hunter House by calling 1-800-266-5592. We encourage you to ask for the book at your local book store.
