This book breaks new ground in our understanding of how we perceive
and represent the space around us - one of the central topics in
cognitive psychology. It presents a new view of development and
spatial cognition by reversing the usual focus on vision and
examining the evidence on representation in the total absence of
vision without specific brain damage. Findings from the author's
work with congenitally totally blind and with sighted children,
together with studies from a wide variety of other areas, are set
in the context of intersensory and spatial development. Touch and
movement are considered as converging sources of reference
information with and without vision. The findings have important
implications for future work in many fields, particularly
developmental pscychology; cognition, cognitive neuroscience and
visual handicap, and make this new work essential reading for
students and researchers in these fields.
