Albinism: observations on attitude and behaviour

Anna Tylor

The author, who is herself an albino, has discussed this subject extensively with doctors, psychologists and geneticists, and also with albinos drawn from various racial groups. In this article she describes the difficulties of diagnosing the disease, the misconceptions and prejudiced attitudes which make the condition more distressing than it need be, and the role of the Albino Fellowship.
