Hardback. Zustand: Very Good - See Description. Presumed First Edition. 1945. Presumed first edition. [v], 37pp. (lacking inserts that should be in a pocket at the end of the book thus). This little book provides a simple explanation of the basic principles of colour. Methods of measuring and specifying colour have been developed by physicists but scientists, artists and technicians often appear to be at variance when speaking about colour. This is partly the result of using the same words with different meanings, but is chiefly because the fundamental facts about colour are not widely understood. This book is intended to clear away some of the difficulties by demonstrating the facts with simple experiments. Colour films were sent out with this book, but they are not present. The book is bound in the original black cloth covered boards with gold titling on the front board. The case of the book is in very good condition with shelf wear and some light soiling to the boards. The contents are tight and clean with the following inscription by one of the authors on the front free endpaper: "Dr. W.H. Taylor with the author's compliments". Inscribed by Author(s).…
