This book is essential reading for researchers of lighting and visual perception ... I strongly expect they will find it an interesting read, and may even find inspiration for new ideas. (Lighting, Research and Technology )
It could hardly be better done. The author has managed to explain very complex matters with exemplary lucidity.. (The Economist )
It is quite the best introduction to the psychology and physiology of perception that I have ever come across. For anyone interested in this fascinating topic, be they intelligent layman, university student, or smart sixth-former, I can hardly recommend it too strongly. (Discovery )
