We perceive color everywhere and on everything that we encounter in daily life. Color science has progressed to the point where a great deal is known about the mechanics, evolution, and development of color vision, but less is known about the relation between color vision and psychology. However, color psychology is now a burgeoning, exciting area and this Handbook provides comprehensive coverage of emerging theory and research. Top scholars in the field provide rigorous overviews of work on color categorization, color symbolism and association, color preference, reciprocal relations between color perception and psychological functioning, and variations and deficiencies in color perception. The Handbook of Color Psychology seeks to facilitate cross-fertilization among researchers, both within and across disciplines and areas of research, and is an essential resource for anyone interested in color psychology in both theoretical and applied areas of study.

This book is a comprehensive treatment of all facets of colour blindness. It looks at the causes of congenital colour deficiency, and acquired colour vision defects arising from ocular and general pathology or excessive use of therapeutic drugs. The design of clinical colour vision tests is fully explained and all the available tests documented. Detailed information is given on the optimum use of screening, classification and occupational tests. Examples of typical results in different types of deficiency are included, together with advice on the examination of children and disadvantaged groups. A checklist is provided of occupations requiring normal colour vision or in which defective colour vision is a handicap. This is a practical book, designed for students and all professionals engaged in colour vision screening, but pitched at a level that will also appeal to the non-specialist reader.
