This book offers detailed coverage of color, colorants, the coloring of materials, and reproducing the color of materials through imaging. It combines the clarity and ease of earlier editions with significant updates about the advancement in color theory and technology. Provides guidance for how to use color measurement instrumentation, make a visual assessment, set a visual tolerance, and select a formulation Supplements material with numerical examples, graphs, and illustrations that clarify and explain complex subjects Expands coverage of topics including spatial vision, solid-state lighting, cameras and spectrophotometers, and translucent materials

Provides approaches to: what produces and affects color; the description of color in words and numbers; arrangement of color in ordered systems; measurement of color with instruments; calculation of color differences and setting of color tolerances; colorants (dyes and pigments); color mixing and matching (visually and by computer); and recent advances and problem areas. Includes equations, tabulated data, and references updated through mid 1980.
