Description: Leipzig, Verlag von Veit & Comp., 1899. 8vo. In the orig. yellow printed wrappers. [1-2 in 8]. (31, I (blank) pp.). DSB VI, 299/301: Ewald Hering [1834-1918] was one of the leading physiologists of his time, the second half of the 19th century, only surpassed by the genius of von Helmholtz. 'Hering mastered the difficult problem of visual space perception and was able to challenge the great master in that field, Hermann von Helmholtz.... Hering exerted a great influence on contemporary sense physiology and on the evolution of modern psychology. Gestalt psychology in particular owes much to him.' [DSB, p. 299].
