Features: Seeing, hearing, smelling, and touching are the ways we possess and experience things, as well as the means by which humans love, enjoy, and suffer. Sight and touch are the fundamental ways humans interact with things, representing tangible human activities. As modes of contact and sensation, they encompass the recognition of objects. Seeing, hearing, and touching: a form of thinking in action. Sight and touch, though always encountering many familiar things, remain ambiguous to the eyes, ears, and hands, never quite equating to the realm of semantics. Sight and touch engage with the unfamiliar and unnamed elements within things, awakening the gaze in the vast anonymity of existence. Thinking is composed of such astonishing "visions": insights, discoveries, awareness, and striking moments that awaken the eyes. The author of this book, as a "observer," meticulously depicts all the subtle sensations that can be perceived by the eyes, ears, and hands. The writing is fluent, the mind active, and the style brilliant.
