The new edition of this authoritative text provides an interdisciplinary treatise of all aspects of the interactions between light and the living world.

The phenomena described in the rest of the book covers all organisms: how light is used by organisms for obtaining energy for life processes, for gathering information about the environment, and for communicating with others of the same or other species. The book also describes "bad" effects of light in causing disease or...
