Excerpt from Colour and Methods of Colour ReproductionFor the reason of the limitation of the scope of the present work, I have refrained from a discussion of the theories, electrical and otherwise, which seek to explain the primary translation of the energy of electro-magnetic radiations into the nervous and mental phenomena which we experience as light and colour. Any treat ment of these theories within the present limits would be inadequate and unsatisfactory, and the effect of their incidence on the older and more fundamental theories seems still uncertain.In conclusion it may be hoped that this book may do some thing at least to enhance the enjoyment of colour by those who read it. Philosophy is less proud than she was, and there is room in the world for men like Sir William Abney and the late Prof. Silvanus P. Thompson, philosophers first, but something of artists too.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
