Fairchild (Munsell Color Science Laboratory, Rochester U. of Technology) updates his text to include recent developments and standards. He addresses the human side of color perception, including color vision and common deficiencies, and the psychophysics psychophysics

Branch of psychology concerned with the effect of physical stimuli (such as sound waves) on mental processes. Psychophysics was established by Gustav Theodor Fechner in the mid-19th century, and since then its central inquiry has remained the quantitative
 of color, including the hierarchy of scales, threshold and matching techniques, scaling in one or many dimensions, and the design of experiments. He then concentrates on colorimetry colorimetry

Measurement of the intensity of electromagnetic radiation in the visible spectrum transmitted through a solution or transparent solid. It is used to identify and determine the concentrations of substances that absorb light of a specific wavelength or colour
