Book
The Psychology of Perspective and Renaissance Art was published by Cambridge University Press in 1986. It has been out of print for a few years. I am reconstructing the first edition online (the copyright is mine now) in PDF, while gradually moving toward a second edition.

As of August 22, 2003, the text of the chapters is complete, and has changed little. Almost all the images are there (some now in color, and some redone). It has neither a bibliography (although the citations are in the text) nor an index. The chapters are numbered differently. In the original edition, the first chapter was I (the capital letter, standing for "Introduction"), then followed chapters 1 through 10. Now the numbering goes from 1 to 11.

Chapters: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11


As of November 23, 2004, the current version of the book (now called The Arrow in the Eye) is a collection of web pages. Go to The Arrow in the Eye. It was created by Michael Douma, Executive Director of the Institute for Dynamic Educational Advancement.
