Publisher's Synopsis
Only 4% of all blind people experience total darkness, the other 96% retain partial vision and have to learn to make their way in a confusing world. The questions often asked by partially-sighted people concern everyday activites and how their lives will be affected. This book answers these questions and looks at talking books, use of kitchen and domestic appliances and the use of a white stick. Also included is information on organizations who can help as well as equipment and resources available and advice for friends and relatives of partially-sighted individuals.
