Recenzii
"I have never before seen a book with so many photographs, diagrams, and data summary tables—they are all helpful. A look at this book will benefit anyone interested in lighting."
—Optics & Photonics News, October 2015
"… a must-read for people looking for a complete introduction to this very modern subject. … this book covers from legacy light sources to new solid state lighting devices, in combination with aspects of lighting and health effects. I strongly recommend this book!"
—Professor Georges Zissis, University of Toulouse, France
"In this book a nice overview is given of all the lighting technologies that we use today and many new entrants in the world of lighting will benefit from reading it."
—Dr. Marco Haverlag, Philips Lighting, The Netherlands
Praise for the First Edition:
"… a welcome publication, written as it is by an expert on light sources … it is a book that will prove useful to those who teach lighting subjects and who have to deal with light sources."
—Robert Bean, Lighting Research and Technology, 2011
"… a concise compilation of a huge family of ancient and modern light sources. As a reference book, it will be useful to scientists, students and professionals who deal with light sources and their applications in spectroscopy, optics and industry."
—Optics & Photonics News, 2011
"Upon finishing this book, you will be impressed by how the author has managed to squeeze such a comprehensive look at light sources into 213 pages. … Of particular value is the author’s ability to condense the amount of complex information into an easy-to-read, concise and logical manner. In fact, it is a delight to run through such a complete ‘refresher course’ in a few hours’ reading. … this book offers a good overview of all current light sources from the older technologies up to the most current. … As a reference book for the lighting professional, it is a very good ‘refresher’ on all areas of lighting, which explains why and where we are in the story of lighting. … it will undoubtedly teach you a thing or two that you did not know about the subject."
—Lighting Journal, February 2011
"The book is of general interest, though mainly focused on the technological aspects of artificial electric lighting, including practical aspects of lighting in common indoor and outdoor situations. Since the discussion includes aspects such as power, efficiency, light intensity, spectral properties, colour reproduction, human perception, health aspects and practicalities of various sorts, it should prove valuable in the design of the proper lighting for given situations, and hence be of interest also for architects, interior decorators and other people who want to design specific lighting. The quality of the paper, the print and the overall bookmaking is excellent, and the book can be recommended to a general readership without constraint."
