Colour is an important and integral part of everyday life, and an understanding and knowledge of the scientific principles behind colour, with its many applications and uses, is becoming increasingly important to a wide range of academic disciplines, from physical, medical and biological sciences through to the arts. Colour and the Optical Properties of Materials carefully introduces the science behind the subject, along with many modern and cutting-edge applications, chosen to appeal to today's students. For science students, it provides a broad introduction to the subject and the many applications of colour. To more applied students, such as engineering and arts students, it provides the essential scientific background to colour and the many applications. Features:Introduces the science behind the subject whilst closely connecting it to modern applications, such as colour displays, optical amplifiers and colour centre lasersRichly illustrated with full-colour platesIncludes many worked examples, along with problems and exercises at the end of each chapter and selected answers at the back of the bookA Web site, including additional problems and full solutions to all the problemsWritten for students taking an introductory course in colour in a wide range of disciplines such as physics, chemistry, engineering, materials science, computer science, design, photography, architecture and textiles.Tilley, Richard J. D. is the author of 'Colour+optical Properties of Materials' with ISBN 9780471851981 and ISBN 0471851981.
