"What a good laboratory course ought to include is not yet wholly clear, and can only be settled by trial; till this has been done a superfluous liberty of selection may not be wholly a disadvantage. The experiments in these chapters cover but a part of the experimental field, chiefly that of sensation and perception, though it is evidently impossible to take out any sort of mental phenomenon for entirely independent examination. Subjects in this section include visual perception of space and motion, Weber's law and psychophysic methods, and suggested apparatus for psychological experiments."

Insisting that sensation constitutes the data for all science, physical and psychological, Ernst Mach articulated an early form of scientific positivism that provided Kulpe and Titchener with an epistemological framework for their emerging views.

How did early moderns experience sense and space? How did the expanding cultural, political, and social horizons of the period emerge out of those experiences and further shape them This Element takes an approach that is both global expansive and locally rooted by focusing on four cities as key examples: Florence, Amsterdam, Boston, and Manila. They relate to distinct parts of European cultural and colonialist experience from north to south, republican to monarchical, Catholic to Protestant. Without attempting a comprehensive treatment, the Element aims to convey the range of distinct experiences of space and sense as these varied by age, gender, race, and class. Readers see how sensory and spatial experiences emerged through religious cultures which were themselves shaped by temporal rhythms, and how sound and movement expressed gathering economic and political forces in an emerging global order.
