Communicative Relations

Book about how bodily-tactile communication develops through social interaction.

Communicative relations is about how people with congenital deafblindness develop bodily-tactile communication.  The aim is to provide a basic understanding of how people with congenital deafblindness use movement and touch to communicate. This book uses examples of people with congenital deafblindness as case studies. Bodily-tactile communication is also relevant for other user groups who face similar challenges in developing communication.

People with congenital deafblindness serve as learning examples in this book. They show us how ways of relating to the world can be built and strengthened even without sight, hearing and language. Bodily-tactile communication is also relevant for other user groups who have similar challenges in developing communication.
