Paperback. Condición: 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.
