The Color Sensitivity Of The Peripheral Retina (1905)

By John Wallace Baird

Book Overview

The Color Sensitivity Of The Peripheral Retina is a scientific book written by John Wallace Baird in 1905. The book explores the sensitivity of the human eye's peripheral retina to different colors. Baird, who was a professor of physiology at Northwestern University, conducted experiments to determine how color perception changes with distance from the center of the retina. He also examined the effects of age, sex, and race on color sensitivity. The book is written in a technical style and includes detailed descriptions of the experiments and results. It is a valuable resource for researchers and students in the fields of ophthalmology, physiology, and psychology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
