What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · June 17, 2026
This is the fourth edition of a foundational professional reference text on Orientation and Mobility (O&M), delivered as an EPUB digital file. Volume I covers the history of the O&M field and the theoretical frameworks that underpin teaching people who are blind or have low vision to navigate their environments independently. It's written for O&M specialists, rehabilitation professionals, and students in vision rehabilitation training programs — not for people with visual impairments themselves. You'll need an EPUB reader application to access it; the publisher provides free reader recommendations, but this is a format consideration worth checking before purchase. All sales are final since it's a digital product.
