This book is a wry and savvy enlightenment about living with significant disabilities. But more significantly, it¹s about surviving it in style through a towering intelligence, a slashing sense of humor, and the filling up of a bushel basket full of accomplishments along the way. Born in 1942, Dr. Bob Segalman¹s parents insisted on mainstreaming him several decades before inclusion was even conceptualized. As a result, Dr. Bob received two doctoral degrees and is the successful-- and for the most part, the sole--advocate for the implementation of Speech-to-Speech phone services for people with speech disabilities, which have since, thanks to his relentless efforts, been adopted across the country. This is his story.
All Dr. Bob¹s profits from this book will go to Speech Communications Assistance by Telephone (501c3) so that more people with speech disabilities can learn to use telephone with Speech-to-Speech.
