Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illumination: And Its Development in the Present Day Chapters on the further development of illumina tion, the illumination of the printed book, and printed book decoration, are also amongst the additions. The chapters on the application of lettering and decoration from the commercial standpoint have also been developed considerably, and at the end of the book some notes have been added on books for further study. I have tried to write in as simple a manner as possible, so that the youngest student should have no difficulty in understanding the instructions that are given. So many books have been written on the subject of Illumination that it may seem quite superfluous to add yet another to the long list. Still, I think that a work treating the matter from the present-day stand point ought to be of some service to the student who is desirous of practising this art to-day. I have felt for some time past that there was a need for a work that would deal with the various ways in which this art could be applied in a time like the present. I have found that most of the books that have been written on Illumination treat the subject either from the standpoint of the archaeologist or merely from that of the amateur. It is simply the result of a sincere desire to supply what I feel to be a real need that this book has been written, and in the hope that it may serve as a handbook and guide for the serious worker. It has not been written with the idea of introducing a quick and easy method of becoming expert in the art of illumination. Success, in this, as in anything else of importance, can come only through hard work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Illumination

Download or read book Illumination written by Alexander Pelham Trotter and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illumination: Its Distribution and Measurement This book is intended to advance the subject of illuminating engineering or the art of directing and adapting light. It is divided into three parts. The first deals with the primary and the derived units of light, the theory of the distribution of illumination and the application of that theory to the spacing and the height of lamps. The second part describes instruments and methods employed for measuring light and illumination. The last part gives a few practical examples of the measurement of illumination. "The art of illumination," wrote Count Rumford in the year 1789, "although it is undoubtedly one of the most useful that has been invented by man, and contributes perhaps more than any other to his comfort and convenience in all countries and in every class of society, has not even been considered as an art; for the technical terms have not been invented which are indispensably necessary in order to render it possible to treat of it in a clear and satisfactory manner." One hundred and three years later, on May 10, 1892, a paper, of which the present volume is an expansion, was read before the Institution of Civil Engineers, was awarded a Telford Medal and a Telford Premium, and was published in volume ex. of the Proceedings of the Institution. The subject still continued to attract little attention, and after sixteen years, at the invitation of Mr. Leon Gaster, and with the permission of the Council of the Institution of Civil Engineers, the Paper was rewritten and appeared in The Illuminating Engineer.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Illumination and Photometry The preparation of this volume was undertaken with a View to providing an adequate text-book of the subject for the use of colleges of engineering. It is 'not intended to be a handbook of technical data nor a manual of practical instructions. Emphasis is therefore given to the scientific basis of the subject and to methods of rational analysis rather than to the description of processes of manufacture, structural details and prevailing practice. A condensed form of treatment has been sought throughout. In the work of instruction much of the subject matter may profitably be amplified by lectures, supplementary reading and the working out of problems. Familiarity with the, technique of photometry should be sought in the labora tory in connection with such a course.

Book excerpt: The fantasy field has been waiting for this for years: Terry McGarrys first novel. Formerly the Vice President of the Science Fiction Writers of America, a longtime copyeditor for all the major publishers, and the author of a number of well-received short stories, McGarry is extremely well known throughout the genre. And now, with talent, insight, and skill rarely seen today, McGarry has crafted a fantasy adventure of the first rank; a wonderful, gripping adventure. Liath was proud to have passed her challenge and become a true mage, ready to journey the land and find a Triad to bond with as an Illuminator. But that very night, her light fails her: she can no longer see the magical illumination guiders, and thus, despite the mages badge upon her breast, can no longer call herself Illuminator. Liath travels to the city and petitions the Ennead, the senior mages of the land, for help and a cure. Before they will help her, they set a task for her to fulfill: she must find and capture the rogue Dark Mage, and bring him to the Ennead for justice; only then will her light be freed. So goes Liath on the most important journey of her life, for the future of the world rests on her success or failure--but which one?
