Recenzje

"This is a much needed complement to the large body of research on American Sign Language (ASL). The chapters provide a reare opportunity to read about several lesser-researched sign languages, but also to explore similarities and differences among sign languages, and between signed and spoken languages."
—Journal of Linguistics

"...all the sign linguistics enthusiasts will welcome the first volume of the latest publication International Review of Sign Linguistics with delight."
—The Phonetician
