This book was released on 2016-10-19 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of Colour Vision HE vast literature on colour vision consists almost entirely of papers written in support of some particular theory. It is peculiarly difficult to obtain a general and unbiassed view of the subject. I have here endeavoured to separate the best established facts of colour vision from the theories, and have then discussed the chief theories in the light of these facts. I wish to express my great indebtedness to Sir William Abney, Professor W. Watson, and Dr Myers for their invaluable assistance in a very difficult task, which demands a not inconsiderable knowledge of such diverse subjects as physics, physiology, and psychology. The chief references to the literature have been given in footnotes. The frequent references to Abney are to his Researches in Colour Vision (london, and to V. Helmholtz to his Hand buch der physiologischen Optik. In the latter case each of the three editions contains material which is absent from the others, and the exact reference is given in the footnote.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colour Vision: A Discussion of the Leading Phenomena and Their Physical Laws More than a century ago the trichromatic theory of colour vision, foreshadowed earlier by the clear insight of Newton, took definite shape through the perceptive power of Thomas Young, that investigator, worthy of wonder, leaping before his time. Throughout nearly half a century thereafter it remained undeveloped, until, in the strong hands of Helm holtz, it took definite mathematical shape, and was pushed to Wide developments. No more self-contained, complete, and instructive example of the application of the strictly scientific procedure of Mathematical Physics could be chosen for special study. Upon the experimental basis supplied by Newton, Maxwell, and Helmholtz himself, the Newtonian law of colour mixture was qualitatively and quantitatively established. The clear perception, which saw through the meaning of apparent limitations or exceptions, was undeterred by them from acceptance of that law as the basic fact of all colour sensation. Subsidiary hypotheses were either sup ported by results of observation, or were specially character ized as non-essential and illustrative only. Every step taken was the simplest and most obvious step that could be taken and it was either justified, or was replaced by the next simplest if it were found to be too limited.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Theories of Color-Perception Objections to Young's Hypothesis on Physical ground8.-in the first place, the retina, in addition to its function as a receiving and transmitting organ, is made by this theory into a differentiating apparatus as well. This is rendered necessary because of Young's disbelief in the capacity of the retina to act as a receptacle for vibrations after the manner of simple bodies. There is something remarkable in a kind of hitch we some times find in the intellectual workings of even our greatest men. It has always been a wonder to scientists that Newton, with a mental power capable of originating so far-reaching a theory as the law of gravitation, should pass by the undulatory theory of Huygens as not capable of explain ing phenomena of light.'

Download or read book The Physiology of Vision written by F. W. Edridge-Green and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physiology of Vision: With Special Reference to Colour Blindness This book is the result of numerous researches on vision and colour-vision, the principal original papers of which are given at the end of the volume, and present the subject in a new aspect. It will be noticed that each section of the subject has been given from the point of view of new facts apart from any theory and so is available for an explanation on any theory. The subjects of vision and colour-vision have been viewed too much from the point of view of theory and the primary assumption is made that the theory is true when this can be easily shown not to be the case, as for instance long papers on induction when there is no induction and the classification of colour blindness as red blindness, green blindness, etc., when this classification is so meaningless that a man may be classified by one observer as a case of complete red blindness and by another as a case of complete green blindness. It is probable that it is for this reason that it is so extraordinarily difficult to establish a new fact.

Download or read book A Brief History of Colour Theory written by George Pavlidis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-01-05 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive introduction in to the various theories of colour and how they developed over the centuries and millennia. As colour is the perception of light by our brains, the book captures not only the physical phenomena but also psychological and philosophical aspects of colours. It starts with ancient studies of Greek philosophers and their insights into light and mirrors, then reviews the theory of colors in the middle ages in Europe and Middle East. The last big part of the book explains the theories of colours by modern scientists and philosophers, starting with Isaac Newton and ending colour schemes of modern digital pictures.

Download or read book A History of Color written by Robert A. Crone and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-07-08 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive text on the history of color theories since Halbertsma's book of 1947. Color is discussed in close connection with the evolution of ideas of light and vision. The book has chapters on the ancient Greek ideas of vision and color; on the contributions of Arabic science; on the Scientific Revolution from Kepler to Newton; on the early history of the three-color hypothesis; on the trichromatic theory and defective color vision; and on Goethe's, Schopenhauer's and Hering's theories. New understanding of the structure and functions of the retina and the brain finally results in the modern science of color vision. A History of Color has been written for ophthalmologists, optometrists and others who are interested in visual science and its history. The book requires no specialized knowledge.

Book excerpt: Thompson provides an accessible review of the current scientific and philosophical discussions of colour vision and is vital reading for all cognitive scientists and philosophers whose interests touch upon this central area.Colour fascinates all of us, and scientists and philosophers have sought to understand the true nature of colour vision for many years. In recent times, investigations into colour vision have been one of the success stories of cognitive science, for each discipline within the field - neuroscience, psychology, linguistics, computer science and artificial intelligence, and philosophy - has contributed significantly to our understanding of colour. Evan Thompson's book is a major contribution to this interdisciplinary project.Colour Vision provides an accessible review of the current scientific and philosophical discussions of colour vision. Thompson steers a course between the subjective and objective positions on colour, arguing for a relational account. This account develops a novel 'ecological' approach to colour vision in cognitive science and the philosophy of perception. It is vital reading for all cognitive scientists and philosophers whose interests touch upon this central area.
