Excerpt from The Colour-Sense: Its Origin and Development, an Essay in Comparative Psychology
I should like to add that I enter the lists as a compara tive psychologist, not as a biological student. I do not pretend to discover facts of botany or zoology at first hand: I accept them as data from the lips of competent specialists. Yet I hope my work may prove valuable in its own peculiar sphere, which ought to be kept distinct from the objective biological sciences whose conclusions form its basis. Our great naturalists supply us with the facts upon which to build our comparative psychology and I hope there is no presumption in employing them sometimes to test the logical correctness of a few among the naturalists' own conclusions.

The Colour-Sense: Its Origin and Development (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the evolution of the human experience of color, from the earliest visual perception in half-formed reptiles to the complex sensory appreciation in advanced civilizations. The author argues that the existence of bright coloration in the world is almost entirely attributable to the influence of the color sense in the animal kingdom. The capacity to perceive and distinguish different colors has driven the evolution of spectacularly colored plants and animals, as well as the development of artistic expression in humans. This book offers a groundbreaking theory on the role of the color sense in shaping the natural world and human culture, with profound implications for our understanding of aesthetics and the history of life on Earth. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
