What is Echolocation? The ability to "SEE" objects using sound instead of sight. This skill used by many blind people is sometimes misunderstood, but it's far more realistic and much easier than you may think. The author demystifies the growing practice of active echolocation in a way that anyone can understand, and gives the reader simple exercises, examples, and lessons as a starting point for launching you into a successful practice of active echolocation. With applied practice of this skill, it's possible for people with visual impairments all over the world to become increasingly independent, supplementing their existing forms of orientation and mobility with the intrinsic awareness that echolocation can provide. Understanding this skill will allow you to shift your way of thinking for an expanded awareness of your environment. With this awareness comes independence, confidence, new possibilities and new opportunities.
