Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historical analysis of the development of research into how the human eye perceives color and light in its peripheral vision. The author traces the evolution of our understanding from the first observations of the phenomenon in the early 1800s to the sophisticated experiments and theories of the late 20th century. Along the way, the book discusses the contributions of key figures such as Purkinje, Aubert, Helmholtz, and Hess. The book concludes by examining the ongoing debate over the extent to which the peripheral retina's color sensitivity differs from that of the central retina, providing valuable insights into the complex and fascinating world of human vision. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of the scientific community's understanding of the differences between central and peripheral vision. The author begins with the initial discovery of the peripheral 'blind spot' by Mariotte in the 17th century, then traces the development of the topic in the 18th and 19th centuries, when scientists such as Thomas Young, Troxler, Purkinje, and Aubert made discoveries about color sensitivity and the differing visual functions of the fovea and peripheral retina. The book includes a comprehensive discussion of the theories proposed to explain these phenomena, including the conjectures of Helmholtz, Fick, and others. The author also discusses the implications of these findings for our understanding of visual perception and the nature of color vision. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
