D¨ oring (Springer, Berlin 1939), and Ferromagnetism by R. M. Bozorth (IEEE Press, New York 1951).

Sight can be so effortless, so useful, and so entertaining–the average human can distinguish several million colors; a falcon can see a fencepost from three thousand yards–that we never stop to think about how complex a process it is and how easily it can fail us. We never have as clear and complete a picture of the world around us as we think we do.
