A History of Light and Colour Measurement: Science in the Shadows
Johnston, Sean F. (University of Glasgow, Scotland)
Judging the brightness and color of light has long been contentious. Alternately described as impossible and routine, it was beset by problems both technical and social. How trustworthy could such measurements be? This book presents a history of the hidden workings of physical science - a technical endeavor embedded in a social context.
