P3D Euclid on seeing 3D
Pending further investigation and based upon the suggestions of Abram
Klooswyk, I have revised the brief history section of my site
http://welcome.to/solidillusions concerning Euclid and Wheatstone. I
changed the wording of the Euclid statement according to your
suggestion. However, I am still curious about the original source of
his statements on vision. Apparently Euclid's major writing is in his
13 books. I have listed 2 references below which I will investigate.
If you know of any others please let me know.
Gillispie, Charles C. ed. The Dictionary of Scientific Biography, 16
vols. 2 supps. New York: Charles Scribner's
Sons, 1970-1990. S.v. "Euclid: Life and Works" by Ivor Bulmer-Thomas.
Heath, Thomas L. The Thirteen Books of Euclid's Elements, 2 vols.
Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1926.
I have also updated the old links and added new ones to 3D at NASA, the
Titanic, Wheatstone, E. H. Anthony, Carleton Watkins, Dali,
Jacques-Henri Lartigue and Alfred Hitchcock.
