Spectacles and the Victorians

Measuring, Defining and Shaping Visual Capacity

Beschreibung

This book explores how the Victorians standardised vision and transformed spectacle use. It offers new insights into how technology and its adoption in medical and non-medical contexts shaped, and continues to shape, our understanding of sensory perception and the assimilation of assistive devices.
