The classic authority on colour measurement now fullyrevised and updated with the latest CIE recommendations
The measurement of colour is of major importance in manycommercial applications, such as the textile, paint, and foodstuffindustries; as well as having a significant role in the lighting,paper, printing, cosmetic, plastics, glass, chemical, photographic,television, transport, and communication industries.
Building upon the success of earlier editions, the 4th editionof Measuring Colour has been updated throughout with newchapters on colour rendering by light sources; colorimetry withdigital cameras; factors affecting the appearance of colouredobjects, and details of new CIE colour appearance models.
Key features:
* Presents colour measurement, not simply as a matter ofinstrumentation and engineering, but also involving the physiologyand psychology of the human observer.
* Covers the principles of colour measurement rather than a guideto instruments.
* Provides the reader with the basic facts needed to measurecolour.
* Describes and explains the interactions between how colour isaffected by the type of lighting, by the nature of the objectsilluminated, and by the properties of the colour vision ofobservers.
* Includes many worked examples, and a series of Appendicesprovides the numerical data needed in many colorimetriccalculations.
The addition of 4th edition co-author, Dr. Pointer, hasfacilitated the inclusion of extensive practical advice onmeasurement procedures and the latest CIE recommendations.
