Tim (timjohnson) | 2 comments Hi all, I've written a book that is geared toward the blind and visually impaired community and it teaches a skill called echolocation which is the ability to see objects by interpreting sounds, with our ears, instead of images, with our eyes.

Although it's geared to blind people, anyone can learn this skill, in fact, I myself am not visually impaired. I am simply astonished by this innate ability that we all posses and decided to learn it first hand. This is the first book that has ever been published on this topic and it is presented in a way that anyone can understand it and start learning how to echolocate. I think you will find it fascinating.

I am looking for more reviews of the book and if anyone is interested in swapping reviews, I would be happy to read your book and post a review in exchange.

Thank you!
