<p>Hello from Hesperian, publishers of Where There Is No Doctor and other books on health. Sorry if this is a crossposting -- we’re writing to let you know that the new, updated edition of our benchmark book on community-based rehabilitation, <a href="http://www.hesperian.org/mm5/merchant.mvc?Store_Code=HB&Screen=PROD&Product_Code=B040" target="_blank">Disabled Village Children</a>, has just arrived, and it’s now available for <a href="http://www.hesperian.org/publications_download.php" target="_blank">free download</a>. <br>
<br>As people with disabilities assert their right to participate in a more just society, Disabled Village Children provides tools that allow children with disabilities to develop more self-confidence and self-reliance. We recently received a letter demonstrating how a boy named Jaime in El Salvador used Disabled Village Children to help fulfill his dream of attending school -- for the full story, please <a href="http://hesperian.typepad.com/weblog/2009/07/disabled-village-children-inspires-change-in-el-salvador-.html" target="_blank">see our blog</a>. <br>
<br>"Disabled Village Children is beautiful as well as extremely useful." <br>-USAID <br><br>Helping Children Who Are Blind, Helping Children Who Are Deaf, and A Health Handbook for Women with Disabilities are also available for free download. If you’re considering helping a community in need by having us send a disabled children’s gift set in your name, or someone else’s name. <br>
