Read it from the library, but don't buy it
The most useful part of this book is the author's anecdotes based on her experience an a medical sign language interpreter.

However, the book also tries to be an introduction to signing for professionals wishing to carry on more basic exchanges in sign language. Here it fails, as the illustrations are not ...
