Six Chapters in ESTC

Honoured to have six chapters published in the Encyclopedia of Color Science and Technology:

  • Traditional color theory – new chapter published October 30 can be accessed via this link.
  • RYB Color – This new 2021 chapter can be accessed via this link.
  • Color Harmony – Co-authored with Antal Nemcsics and Renata Pompas, the updated 2021 version can be accessed via this link.

  • Optical Art – An updated version of the 2016 chapter that can be accessed via this link.

The 2021 edition of ECST is edited by Renzo Shamey, Director of Color Science & Imaging, NSCU & President, Inter-Society Color Council. The earlier edition of ECS&T was published in 2016 and edited by Ronnier Luo.

The Encyclopedia is definitely the most comprehensive, authoritative single source of information relating to colour science, technology and application. All chapters are written by experts in their specific fields of research and endeavour, and peer-reviewed to ensure a high standard of information. According to Springer, the Encyclopedia of Color Science and Technology:

  • Collates work from such fields as optics, imaging, color chemistry, industrial color, coating technologies, and color physics.
  • Serves as an interdisciplinary reference, linking fundamental concepts of color science to applications of color.
  • Discusses recent technological advances of color science and technology and speculates on the future of color.
  • Assembles for the first time in one centralized work the broad interdisciplinary field of color science and technology.

I am grateful to José Luis Caivano, Renzo Shamey and my colleagues in the global academic colour community to be included in this influential resource.
