Abstract

Now Jemma Lorenat, in her Years Ago column "I Can See the Ellipsoid from the Inside: Girtonian Responses to Francis Galton's Survey on Mental Imagery" in the I Mathematical Intelligencer i [[1]], has augmented Galton's evaluation and done the work for three Girton College students in what is a long overdue and fascinating analysis. References 1 Jemma Lorenat, I Can See the Ellipsoid from the Inside: Girtonian Responses to Francis Galton's Survey on Mental Imagery. Francis Galton posed questions about mental imagery to men, women, and children, but he evaluated only the men's responses. [Extracted from the article]
