Summary

"Deaf Culture Dynamics" explores the multifaceted world of Deaf communities, highlighting that these vibrant cultures are shaped by shared language, social practices, and a strong sense of identity. The book emphasizes that sign languages are not mere gestures but fully developed languages crucial to Deaf identity and community. Readers will gain insights into the historical struggles and triumphs of Deaf advocacy movements, including the impact of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) on linguistic rights and accessibility. This book uniquely presents Deaf cultures not as a consequence of hearing loss, but as dynamic social entities with distinct values and artistic expressions. It contrasts exclusionary oralist methods in education with inclusive bilingual-bicultural approaches, examining their impact on Deaf individuals. By integrating linguistic, historical, and sociological analyses, the book offers a holistic understanding of Deaf communities, drawing on empirical research and personal narratives. The book is structured into three parts, beginning with core concepts of Deaf identity and community formation, then analyzing historical advocacy movements, and finally exploring contemporary issues such as cochlear implantation and globalization. It connects to fields like sociolinguistics and disability studies, providing valuable knowledge for educators, policymakers, and anyone interacting with Deaf individuals.

    It has been fifty years since the first language experiments on chimpanzees. Robert Ingersoll is well known for being one of the main carers and best friend of the chimpanzee, Nim Chimpsky, but there were other chimpanzees in the University of Oklahoma's Institute for Primate Studies, including Washoe, Moja, Kelly, Booee, and Onan, who were taught sign language in the quest to discover whether language is learned or innate in humans. Antonina Anna Scarnà's expertise in language acquisition and neuroscience offers a vehicle for critical evaluation of those studies. 
 
 
 
Ingersoll and Scarnà investigate how this research failed to address the emotional needs of the animals. It is time to consider the research from a different perspective, examining the neglect and cruelty that was inflicted on those animals in the name of psychological science. This book re-examines those cases, addressing directly the suffering and traumatic experiences endured by the captive chimpanzees, in particular the female chimpanzee, Washoe, and her resultant inability to be a competent mother. 
 
 
 
This book discusses the unethical nature of the studies in the context of recent research on trauma and offers a specific and direct psychological message, proposing to finally close the door on the language side of these chimpanzee studies.
