Title: Erwin Schrödinger’s Color Theory: Translated with Modern Commentary | Author(s): Erwin Schrödinger, Keith K. Niall | Year: 2017 | Language: English | Pages : 197 | Size: 3 MB | Extension: pdf

This book presents the most complete translation to date of Erwin Schrödinger’s work on colorimetry. In his work Schrödinger proposed a projective geometry of color space, rather than a Euclidean line-element. He also proposed new (at the time) colorimetric methods – in detail and at length - which represented a dramatic conceptual shift in colorimetry. Schrödinger shows how the trichromatic (or Young-Helmholtz) theory of color and the opponent-process (or Hering) theory of color are formally the same theory, or at least only trivially different. These translations of Schrödinger’s bold concepts for color space have a fresh resonance and importance for contemporary color theory.
