This second edition has been
rewritten, updated, and enlarged,
describing the basic principles of
color vision and colorimetry. The
history of color is described, along
with the main methods used to
measure color and their associated
color systems, and the human eye and
its color detectors are explained
with some detail. The book has been
written with students in an
introductory color course in mind,
but those who have experience in
the field will also benefit from the
compendium of data within.
