Structural colors in living beings are one of the most marvelous
arts that nature has ever created during the long history of the
evolution. These colors originate from surprisingly sophisticated
microstructures which gave rise to a new field of research
bionanophotonics. This book occupies a special position among
similar books in the field of photonics, because it places a
special emphasis on the detailed physical basis for the optical
processes that are deeply connected with the structural colors, and
also on the biological and physiological bases concerning what a
variety of animals are living and how they are seen by human
vision. In addition, it contains ample examples for the recent
technological advances in photonics that are rooted in the
nature.
