Publisher's Synopsis
""Two Essays, One Upon Single Vision With Two Eyes, The Other On Dew: A Letter To Lloyd, Lord Kenyon"" is a book written by William Charles Wells in 1818. The book is a collection of two essays, the first one being about the phenomenon of single vision with two eyes, and the second one about the formation of dew. The author addresses these topics in a letter to Lloyd, Lord Kenyon, a British judge and politician.In the first essay, Wells explores the concept of binocular vision, which is the ability of the eyes to work together to create a single, three-dimensional image. He discusses the various theories of binocular vision that were prevalent at the time, and presents his own hypothesis on the subject. He argues that the brain combines the images from both eyes to create a single, unified perception of the world.The second essay is about the formation of dew, which is the process by which moisture in the air condenses on surfaces during the night. Wells explains the scientific principles behind dew formation, and discusses the various factors that can affect it, such as temperature, humidity, and wind. He also describes some of the practical applications of dew, such as its use in agriculture and gardening.Overall, ""Two Essays, One Upon Single Vision With Two Eyes, The Other On Dew: A Letter To Lloyd, Lord Kenyon"" is a fascinating exploration of two natural phenomena that have intrigued scientists and laypeople alike for centuries. Wells presents his ideas in a clear and concise manner, making this book accessible to readers of all backgrounds and levels of scientific knowledge.""With A Memoir Of His Life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
