Many topics are discussed in this timely reference, including an
introduction to the science of color, and entries on the physics,
chemistry and perception of color. Color is described as it
relates to optical phenomena of color and continues on through
colorants and materials used to modulate color and also to human
vision of color. The measurement of color is provided as is
colorimetry, color spaces, color difference metrics, color
appearance models, color order systems and cognitive color.

Other topics discussed include industrial color, color imaging,
capturing color, displaying color and printing color.
Descriptions of color encodings, color management, processing
color and applications relating to color synthesis for computer
graphics are included in this work. The Encyclopedia also delves
into color as it applies to other domains such as art and design
– ie – color design, color harmony, color palettes, color and
accessibility, researching color deficiency, and color and data
visualization. There is also information on color in art
conservation, color and architecture, color and educations, color
and culture, and an overview of the history of color and comments
on the future of color.
