I had the chance to read through this recently updated text and I wanted to share some of my thoughts, here, for those who seek more information about color management. First of all, I found the presentation “readily accessible”, with just the right balance of key concepts and examples. There are a host of relevant figures and screen captures, from Adobe Photoshop and many popular software packages such as X-Rite i1Profiler, which help illustrate the important ideas while adding the value to the discussions. Second, I found the coverage quite up to date with the current status of the industry, both in terms of “hard-copy” publication form and “electronic” form. Print is still not dead while smartphones and the internet are ubiquitous. I appreciated the sections on ISO-13655 M0 vs M1 vs M2 measurements. I also appreciated the sections on lighting and its methods of evaluation. I appreciated the section on calculation of CIE XYZ tri-stimulus values – always a treat for the eye, a must do exercise for my students, when I get the chance, in Excel. There are sections on XML – yes, XML! – “profiling”. Never thought I’d be drawn to “XML color management” one day but it is there, nevertheless, and it is found, according to the author in what’s called ICCmax and Windows’s own WCS which, not too many people were fond of, when it initially came out. Very worth investigating, if only, to possibly work around the weird kind of encoding of ICC profiles, as far as I’m concerned… Third, I wish I would have had access to a text like this when I started my foray into color management, a few years ago. But all I got what “Color reproduction” by Robert Hunt. Not as “readily accessible”. “Thorough” but not for the mainstream, I later found out. Fourth, it’s obvious that efforts were made for the graphics and images to be reproduced accurately 😊 Fifth, my mother tongue is not English but I have to say I did not stumble on any overly complicated technical jargon. I found the text clear to read, unambiguous and pleasant. Overall, a big thumb’s up! Even though I can say I have learned quite a bit about color management on my own, over the years, through my humble experiences and readings, I have to say I have far from exhausted the subject and this book helped fill many of the “little recesses” I still hold about color management.
