This book describes Microsoft Windows XP for blind and visually impaired
computer users, enabling them to take full advantage of this new version
of Windows when using it with assistive technology.
"Sarah has developed a remarkable insight and understanding
of how you perform tasks when you can't see the screen. Her books
have become the computer-bible for users and trainers alike."
British Computer Association of the Blind, 2002.
This is the fourth in the series of award-winning books on Windows
for blind and visually impaired users by Dr. Sarah Morley, and "Windows
XP Explained" continues to fill an important gap in the Microsoft
Windows literature.
It explains basic computer terminology and Windows concepts, and
goes on to cover more advanced Windows XP functionality. It describes
objects and tasks from a non-visual perspective with full details
of keyboard commands, written specifically for blind and visually
impaired users who are not necessarily looking at the screen or using
a mouse.
This book provides blind and visually impaired users with a thorough
grounding in this new operating system, and enables them to work comfortably
in Windows XP with whatever assistive technology they are using.

Who should read this book?
- Blind and visually impaired computer users
- Those training or working with blind and visually impaired computer
users
- Those new to Windows and those who need to know the more advanced
features of Windows XP from a non-visual perspective
The book is available in print, braille, on tape and on disk, with
accompanying large print and braille tactile diagrams which are fully
described in the book itself.
