Award-winning author Dr. Sarah Morley Wilkins has teamed up with Steve
Griffiths in this new step-by-step guide on Microsoft Windows 7 and
Vista, written specifically for blind users. The fifth book in the
"Windows Explained" series from the Royal National Institute for the
Blind, this tutorial starts with the basics and guides users through
topics such as file management, troubleshooting, and using the Internet.
Written from a non-visual perspective, this guide will also benefit
adaptive technology trainers and people supporting users with sight
loss. By special arrangement with RNIB, NBP is offering the full range
of formats (with American braille) to customers in the United States and
Canada only.
