Abstract
THE author has rewritten and enlarged the last section of his “Photographic Optics and Colour Photography,” and in this volume issues it separately. Being “for amateurs,” only those processes that are practically suitable for this class of workers are included, excepting the final chapter on kinematography. Indeed, the subject has been narrowed still further, for the only method treated of with any fulness is the single-plate or screen-plate process. Here evidently the author writes with considerable experience and even enthusiasm, and as those parts that deal with the “autochrome,” “dioptichrome,” “Thames,” and “omnicolore” plates have been revised by the respective makers of these plates, there is excellent guarantee that the details given are trustworthy.
