A necessary corrective to the notion thatthe human individual is fully subordinate to genes and evolution., Admirable and lucid. A necessary corrective to the notion that the human individual is fully subordinate to genes and evolution., One comes away from this book with a sense that both the scientific description of color and the science that is used to arrive at that description are mutually reinforcing: a feedback loop wherein a par-ticular understanding of perception shapes a particular understanding of the world, which, in turn, shapes a particular understanding of perception, and so forth. In this way, the book is something of a meta-exercise in the history of perception--a way of viewing one's own perceptions in a historical mirror. If one ap-proaches the book with this precept in mind, the experience will be rewarding.
