What is the nature of light? What can visual illusions tell us about the nature of perception? In this fully revised edition of the classic textbook, Professors Rossing and Chiaverina present the science of light ? that is, the science behind what and how we see. Their approach emphasizes phenomena rather than mathematical theories, and the joy of discovery rather than the drudgery of derivations ? the opposite of "heavy science". The text explores such topics as: the effects of mirrors and prisms on the color of light; the optics of the eye and camera; the physiology of the eye and the nature of color vision; the different kinds of sources of light; compact discs; photography and holography; symmetry in art and nature; color in printing and painting; and computer imaging and processing. It includes numerous problems, questions for discussion, and suggestions for simple experiments to support interactive learning. This updated edition contains a wealth of new full-color artwork, and information on the latest developments in light source and display technologies. Requiring no prior knowledge of physics, it will appeal to students and any reader interested in the visual arts. 606 $aOptics 606 $aElectrodynamics 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aArts 606 $aMicrowaves 606 $aOptical engineering 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronics$xMaterials 606 $aClassical Electrodynamics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P21070 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aArts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/416000 606 $aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T24019 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 615 0$aOptics. 615 0$aElectrodynamics. 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aArts. 615 0$aMicrowaves. 615 0$aOptical engineering. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronics$xMaterials. 615 14$aClassical Electrodynamics. 615 24$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aArts. 615 24$aMicrowaves, RF and Optical Engineering. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 676 $a535 700 $aRossing$b Thomas D$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$061179 702 $aChiaverina$b Christopher J$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373923803321 996 $aLight Science$92521724 997 $aUNINA
