There are several other excellent Websites out there that discuss faceblindness. I suggest that you check them all out, since my brief descriptions do not do them justice.
Each person has a different view of the condition. All of them are informative and interesting, and some are also humorous.
| Bill Choisser's "Face blind!" site |
Bill has created a large and useful Website containing insights into his condition and how it affects him. His comments are deeply personal and thoughtful. |
| Maria's Faceblind pages |
Maria shares her struggles with faceblindness, and also has some interesting quotes and humor about faces. Maria's tone is often playful, despite treating the subject seriously. |
| Cecilia's Pages |
Cecilia discusses prosopagnosia from a more technical viewpoint, while also including many personal insights. She compares face recognition to recognizing different stones. |
| Glenn's Prosopagnosia Pages | Glenn's pages are an informal introduction to faceblindness, with a FAQ of the ten top questions people ask him. |
| Tim Munro's Page | Tim offers yet another glimpse into the world of a faceblind person, though Tim is uncomfortable with that word. He feels that since he can see a face perfectly well, calling this condition a form of "blindness" is misleading. He compares the difficulty of recognizing faces to the difficulty one would have identifying fingerprints - each is unique, but it would be hard to know whose print it was just by looking. |
| Prosopagnosia Research Center at Harvard University | This is a fairly technical Website - not for the faint of heart, though it contains some good information if you are brave. This Website offers a questionnaire for those interested in helping with prosopagnosia research. |
