Críticas

'Each account is succinct and lucid, illustrated by both diagrams and photographs, some stunning in their beauty. A distinguishing feature of their account is a systematic attempt to give clear scientific explanations for each effect ... The balance of description and physical explanation is excellent.' Arthur Zajonc, Nature

'... written in a laid back and enthusiastic style ... After reading this book, I will certainly be on the look out for some of the curious effects described, camera at the ready!' Astronomy Now

'... a beautifully illustrated popular account of atmospheric phenomena.' Nature

'The overall text is well written, with clear explanations, and is properly integrated with the excellent illustrations. The latter, including some subtle effects, are reproduced accurately, and at a size that does justice to the phenomena involved.' Weather

Reseña del editor

We live in a world of optical marvels - from the commonplace, but beautiful rainbow, to the rare and eerie superior mirage. Have you ever asked yourself how a rainbow is formed, why the setting sun is red and flattened, or even why the sky at night is not absolutely black? If so, then allow David Lynch to provide you with the answers. This beautiful and informative guide provides clear explanations to all naturally occurring optical phenomena seen with the naked eye. It offers complete and easy-to-understand insights into shadows, halos, water optics, mirages and a host of other spectacles. Separating myth from reality, it outlines the basic principles involved, and supports them with many figures and references. A wealth of rare and spectacular photographs, many in full colour, illustrate these phenomena throughout, with many helpful hints on how you can best observe and photograph them. Color and Light in Nature provides a complete, well-illustrated, and authoritative guide to seeing, photographing and understanding nature's optical delights.
