For the first time, a book has been written for the general reader that explains the nature and consequences of colour blindness.
The first part of the book describes the several types of colour vision deficiency and how they are passed from generation to generation. The second part uses computer generated illustrations to recreate the world as seen by the colour blind. Difficulties experienced in everyday life are discussed, plus problems that may be encountered at work and at school. Advice is given on the use of coloured lenses that can assist in distinguishing colours.
The book will be of great interest to the colour blind, their parents and their spouses. It will be found of value by professionals such as teachers, careers advisers and graphic designers.
