“This is a bible of current research into the photochemistry, photobiology, and evolution of the visual systems and the pineal gland in vertebrates and invertebrates. … The book will benefit graduate students, seasoned investigators, and vision scientists interested in photoreceptors.” (Joseph J. Grenier, Amazon.com, January, 2017)
