Guest guest Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 That book, I am not sure of, but there are several books by Becker that are very good, especially for type 2 diabetics. I think her most book was published last year. _____ From: blind-diabetics [mailto:blind-diabetics ] On Behalf Of S.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 If you have an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad, Diabetes for Dummies is available on the iBookstore (note: this is not digital audio format, but is accessible e-book format).

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 I've found it a little disappointing. It might be my experience though. I tried to read my own book, which was in .modi format, which is the Kindle format, but perhaps because it didn't come from Amazon, it didn't work quite right. I haven't tried all that many books. What you might want to do is download and install the Kindle For PC program, then find some free Kindle books to give it a test run. I've got a direct link for the Kindle For PC program and the accessible plug-in at my web site. Go to the following page, and either search using your screen reader's search feature, or hit h to jump to the " Where To Purchase " header, at which point you'll tab several times to get to the link. http://www.authordavidbond.com/newest.php Dave ~~ Now available: THE ATTACHÉ! -- From Desert Breeze Publishing ~~ Visit: http://www.authordavidbond.com Upcoming releases: A TIME TO BUILD -- June, 2012 SWEET MUSIC -- October, 2012 A TIME TO HEAL -- February, 2013 OUT OF THE DESERT -- July, 2013 A TIME TO DANCE -- November, 2013 Anyone know if Diabetes for Dummies is available in audio?

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2012 Report Share Posted March 20, 2012 It does work with JAWS AND NVDA because I use JAWS 12 and it works just fine with that.
