For the Benefit of Those Who See: Dispatches from the World of the Blind by Rosemary Mahoney
5.0
This is not a book for the blind, as the title states, it is for the benefit of those who see.
Blind people may take offense at the level of ignorance displayed by the author. However I think this ignorance real, or exaggerated serves a purpose. It allows a reader that approaches blind people with such misconceptions to take the journey into enlightenment together with the narrator.
