This illustrated survey covers what Nicholas Wade calls the "observational era of vision," beginning with the Greek philosophies and ending with Wheatstone's description of the stereoscope in the late 1830s (after which vision became an experimental science). Although there are other histories of vision, this is the first to present extracts of the works of scholars, organized both topically and chronologically.
