Book Description
Color Vision gives both the student and the specialist an introduction to and a detailed overview of the classical and newest findings about the molecular genetic, evolutionary, anatomical, physiological, and perceptual aspects of human and primate color vision. Bringing together scientists from many different disciplines, the book defines the present state-of-knowledge and clarifies issues of general interest for the expert and non expert alike. No other textbook about human color vision covers so many disciplines nor is so up-to-date or thorough in its treatment.
