Abstract
This remarkable and unusual book is by two outstanding authorities on the science of colour: Dr. Stiles, for many years a senior member of the Light Division at the National Physical Laboratory, and Dr. Wyszecki, currently in charge of the Radiation Optics Section of the Canadian National Research Council. The authors' aim has been to provide a comprehensive source book of data required by the practical and theoretical worker in the field of colour and they have achieved this aim so successfully that their book is likely to become the standard work on the subject and to remain so for a good many years.
