Who was the joker that invented P08 sights?

I just got my first Luger last night, a 1918 Erfurt shooter and I love it, but the sights stink. Does anybody know what the history is behind the v rear sight and inverted v front sight? The same opticaly chalenging sight system is used on the Russian 1891 Mosin Nagant and Mauser K98 rifles which makes me think that there must be some theory behind the concept.
