Pioneers of Color Science offers an informative sourcebook not only for general research but also for educators wanting to augment their lectures and courses with brief biographical an background information. While developments in color science to about 1900 are well documented, both here and elsewhere, its chronology proves particularly useful for tracking developments since then. ... this first edition will deservedly find its way into academic reference libraries and establishes a commendable basis for future revisions and expansions.
