"A wonderfully original little book. Like everything he writes a work of genius."—Prof. W. James of Harvard.
"I consider each work of Professor Mach a distinct acquisition to a library of science."—Prof. D. W. Hering, New York University.
"There is no work known to the writer which, in its general scientific bearings, is more likely to repay richly thorough study. We are all interested in nature in one way or another, and our interests can only be heightened and clarified by Mach's wonderfully original and wholesome book. It is not saying too much to maintain that every intelligent person should have a copy of it,—and should study that copy."—Prof. J. E. Trevor, Cornell.
"Students may here make the acquaintance of some of the open questions of sensation and at the same time take a lesson in the charm of scientific modesty that can hardly be excelled."—Prof. E. C. Sanford, Clark University.
