This book reviews the current state of color vision research as seen from different disciplines of color science such as neurobiology, neuroethology, molecular genetics, medicine, psychology, color metrics and measurement, philosophy, and art. The book is an introductory text for graduate students as well as for experts who would like an overview of the state of the art in related areas of color vision research
