In the great big world of literature and information, how many books do you 
think come out of the various printing houses each year, but more to the 
point, how many of those books are available to blind and visually impaired 
people?

A couple of weeks ago Stevie Wonder spoke to the United Nations on this very 
subject.

On this week's Attitude Test, we will hear the speech that Mr Wonder gave to 
the UN, and then the floor is open for discussion.  Should we be entitled to 
be able to read virtually every book that's published?  why are many of the 
major publishing houses reluctant to allow books to be available 
electronically?  What can we do to help the process, and what can bodies 
like the UN do to further this cause?

All this and more on this week's Attitude Test, heard weekly on the Global 
Voice at 18:00 UTC, 3 pm Eastern, mid-day Pacific in the US, 7 pm in the UK 
and 8 pm in Central Europe.

If you would like to interact with the program, you can by skype at 
the.global.voice; by email at yourvoice at theglobalvoice.info, or by using any 
of our three phone numbers listed on our website http://theglobalvoice.info.

That's the Attitude Test where discussion and debate are actively 
encouraged.
