Books by Mark Paterson

"Through an unfolding historical, philosophical and literary narrative that includes Locke, Molyneux and Berkeley in Britain, and Diderot, Voltaire and Buffon in France, this book explores how the Molyneux Question and its aftermath has influenced attitudes towards blindness by the sighted, and sensory substitution technologies for the blind and vision impaired, to this day."

Touch is the first sense to develop in the womb, yet often it is overlooked. This work examines the role of touching and feeling as part of the fabric of everyday, embodied experience. It examines the role of touch across a range of experiences including aesthetics, digital design, visual impairment and touch therapies.
