There are but a few books we have found that deal directly with the complex
subject of how we perceive colors, some of them include:
Colour Perception: A Practical Approach to Colour Theory
Tim Armstrong
This short and easy-to-understand book has a very pratical way of
dealing with the issue of color theory and more specifically how
we perceive colors. The book provides interactive tools that really
allow you to expereince color first hand.
Anter takes a very scientific review of how color perceptiona nd
appearnce is altered from different distances. If you are looking
for sound data on how color perception can change, this is a very
interesting and indepth review.
