This book sets out to  answer  the question: Why do particular opaque minerals have colours  we see?  This includes not only the colour seen in plane polarized  light, but  also the colours of anisotropic minerals viewed between  crossed or  slightly uncrossed polars. Beginning with an explanation  of the  physiological aspects of colour perception and the CIE  (Commission  Internationale de L'Eclairage) numerical colour  specification, the  text goes on to examine in detail the physics of  the interaction of  light with minerals and how the optical properties  of sections can be  explained in terms of the dispersion of the  relative permittivity  tensor.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1992-02-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780442308087\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: cm xcm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 471\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312675082380,"sku":"9780442308087","price":89.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780442308087","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
