Light Science: Physics and the Visual Arts (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780387988276)

Intended for students in the visual arts and for others with an interest in art, this text presents the science of light -- that is, the science behind what and how we see. The approach emphasizes phenomena rather than mathematical theories and the joy of discovery rather than the drudgery of derivations -- the opposite of "heavy science."
