Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exposà of the appalling conditions and mismanagement found within the Ontario Institution for the Blind, an institution supposedly dedicated to supporting those with visual impairments. However, through meticulous research and firsthand accounts, the author reveals a sy…stematic neglect of students' needs, a hierarchy of mistreatment, and a lack of care that have transformed the institution into more of a dangerous domain than a place of enlightenment. The author not only paints a vivid picture of these failures, but also delves into the historical context that has allowed this institution to operate in such a manner, and discusses the societal prejudices against the blind that have contributed to these systemic failures. It is a scathing indictment of an organization that should be a beacon of hope, and a challenge to the very definition of care and protection for the vulnerable. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
