Most arguments for a rediscovery of the body and the senses hinge
on a critique of "visualism" in our globalized, technified society.
This approach has led to a lack of actual research on the processes
of visual "enskillment." Providing a comprehensive spectrum of case
studies in relevant contexts, this volume raises the issue of the
rehabilitation of vision and contextualizes vision in the
contemporary debate on the construction of local knowledge vs. the
hegemony of the socio-technical network. By maintaining an
ethnographic approach, the book provides practical examples that
are both accessible to undergraduate students and informative for
an academic audience.
