Books by John Herbert Parsons

First published in 1924 as part of the Cambridge Psychological Library, this book examines the chief theories on colour vision in the light of available facts at the time of publication. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of science or colour vision.

Originally published in 1927, this book emphasizes the importance of the biological foundations of psychology, with perception being the bridge between nerve processes and consciousness. Parsons, an ophthalmic surgeon, views problems of perception as being both biological and psychological issues in the conscious and behavioural lives of an animal.
