The present book addresses the issue of whether, supposing a vision-touch convergence/cognitive link, it is possible through certain precursors, aimed at pre-cuing stored experiences, to improve the recognition proficiency of the newly blinded. Indeed, throughout four chapters, the present book is concerned with: Chapter 1; recognition proficiency, Chapter 2; improving recognition proficiency, Chapter 3; improving mental manipulation, thus recognition proficiency, and Chapter 4; the use and usability of precursors aimed at pre-cuing already stored experiences. Seeing Through Touch advocates the importance of ensuring that stored, visual, experiences and current, tactual, perceptions actually supplement each other, i.e., via the modality-irrelevant shape cue-shape property. Following this avenue even further, Seeing Through Touch suggests and also argues in favour of precursors emphasizing vision-touch relations: (1) a visual precursor aimed at pre-cuing prior to the total sight loss, and (2) a tactual precursor aimed at pre-cuing after the total sight loss.
