Sinossi

At last, here is a scientifically correct introduction to the fundamentals of color, without mathematics or heavy jargon. Much broader in scope than other general texts on the subject, Color spans the full spectrum of science, technology, and art to produce a truly comprehensive picture of this fascinating subject. You will find:

  • Solid explanations of key technical concepts concerning light, human vision, and color perception
  • Broad coverage of color order systems and color measurement—NCS, Munsell, OSA-UCS, Colorcurve, CIE systems, and more
  • A straightforward examination of color reproduction technologies and techniques, color fidelity, colorant formulation, and other issues
  • A concise historical review of the development of color and color theory in art, including harmony of color
  • A carefully selected combination of color plates, figures, and diagrams, plus an extensive glossary of specialized terms

Well organized and clearly written, Color is the ideal basic resource for color technologists, artists, designers, students, and general readers
