Question about Feature Article: Colors by the Thousands

[Anonymous]

I understand the article was in French originally, and it looks like it was translated by Nicolas Will, but who actually wrote the article?

And I must say I enjoyed it immensly. I had a teacher in High school who did a very good job explaining how our eyes interpret light and I haven't really read a concise simple explanation that most people can understand since.

So, Kudos to the author, and Kudos to whoever decided to put this article in the magazine.

There was a mix-up at publication time... sorry about that. It has been corrected.

The article was written by Benoît Finet and Florian Lesage for the French on-line resource http://www.recifs.org.

Benoît Finet and Florian Lesage both have a Ph.d in biology. Florian works as a prized research director for the CNRS (the French national scientific research body).
