Notă biografică

The authors are known internationally for teaching and research in lighting. David Loe founded the postgraduate course in Light and Lighting at University College London and directed the course for many years. His research focused on the relationship between the lit environment and human performance. Peter Tregenza was Professor of Architectural Science at the University of Sheffield where his teaching was to architecture students and his research was on daylighting. Both authors have lectured extensively throughout the world and received prestigious awards for their research.


Recenzii

"The use of the term "guidebook" is intentional in that the apparent goal of the book in concept, if not in the overall size of the book, is to provide all the knowledge one would need as we journey into the "unknown" intending to provide light; a most interesting and intriguing concept in this age of electronic knowledge."Fred Oberkircher, Fellow IES, Ed. IALD, LC, past President lES, Book Review Editor for LD+A
