Duplicity Theory of Vision - From Newton to the Present (Hardcover)

The duplicity theory of vision concerns the comparisons (both
differences and similarities) and interaction between the cone and
rod systems in the visual pathways, with the assumption that the
cone system is active during daylight vision and the rod system
functions in low light (night time). Research on this aspect of
vision dates back to the 17th century and the work of Newton, and
is still ongoing today. This book describes the origin and
development of this fundamental theory within vision research -
whilst also examining the Young-Helmholtz trichromatic colour
theory, and the opponent colour theory of Hering - and presents
evidence and ideas in light of modern conceptions of the theory.
Written for academic researchers and graduate students, the book
brings back knowledge of the tradition of duplicity theory,
inspiring questions related to anatomy, comparative biology,
molecular biology, photochemistry, physiology, genetics,
phylogenetics and psychophysics.
