Synopsis
Unlock the science behind light and color and learn how to measure, reproduce, and appreciate them.
Colour and Methods of Colour Reproduction offers a clear, practical overview of how light, color perception, and color measurement come together in real-world applications. Drawing on early 20th‑century research and modern experimental methods, the book explains how hue, brightness, and color names connect to physical properties of light and materials. It covers the eye, color vision theories, color instruments, and the science behind color printing, making it a valuable reference for students, designers, and technicians alike.
Structured to bridge theory and practice, this edition guides readers through fundamental concepts, from the nature of light to the measurement of color in materials and prints. It discusses instruments for color measurement, differences between additive and subtractive color mixing, and the challenges of matching colors under varying lights. The work emphasizes careful verification, reliable methods, and a thoughtful approach to color as both a physical phenomenon and a human experience.
- Foundational discussion of light, color, and perception, with approachable explanations of wave theory and hue.
- In-depth look at color measurement tools, including colorimeters, spectrophotometers, and patch methods.
- Coverage of color printing in color reproduction and methods for consistent results under different illuminants.
- Insights into color vision research, including visual thresholds and the effects of illumination on color judgments.
Ideal for readers seeking a solid grounding in color science and its practical applications in printing, photography, and display technology.
