What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
This is the fourth edition of a comprehensive professional reference covering orientation and mobility (O&M) instruction — the discipline that teaches people who are blind or have low vision to navigate and move safely through their environments. Volume II specifically addresses sensory skill development, adaptive strategies across different age groups and ability levels, and current assistive technology applications relevant to O&M practice. It's written for O&M specialists, vision rehabilitation therapists, and graduate students in blindness-related programs — not for individuals with vision loss themselves, but for the professionals who serve them. The book draws on contributions from over 50 subject matter experts, making it a substantial reference rather than a quick-start guide. Print copies are made to order with a 3-4 week lead time, and there's no return option once purchased.
