What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This is the print edition of the second volume of a reference text on orientation and mobility (O&M), the skills of knowing where you are and moving safely from place to place when you are blind or have low vision. It has contributions from more than 50 experts and focuses on how to teach: using the senses, working with different age and ability groups, and applying technology. It is written for O&M specialists, teachers, and students in the field, not as a how-to for someone learning to travel on their own. Pair it with Volume I if you want the full picture, since this volume covers instruction and practice.
