Reviews

This translation, prepared by two leading Purkinje scholars, is thus to be welcomed...Wade and Brozek's^ translation surely will make Purjinke's dissertation more available to non-German readers. -Journal of the History of the Behavioral Sciences Purkinje's Vision...gives us a full historical context for the phenomena Purkinje studied and makes clear the significance of what he added....The book is descriptive and objective...The authors are thorough in presenting the historical background of the phenomena that came to interest him, and above all scrupulous in crediting others where they might have preceded him but not been recognized by history. -Kosmas Czechoslovak and Central European Journal This book is anchored by a compelling and scholarly presentation of Purkinje's early work from the perspective of the modern discipline of psychology. -Journal of the History of the Neurosciences
