Architectural Lighting October 7, 2002
Stephen Meder (Honolulu, Hawaii)
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
This is an excellent book. It provides a comprehensive overview while supplying specific design applications on the topics of natural and electric lighting. It illuminates many technologies and design principles with straight forward language and clear reinforcing graphics.
I teach architectural lighting at the School of Architecture at the University of Hawaii. I have reviewed many lighting books for this class and have found the Egan and Olgyay text to be very appropriate for the beginning and advanced student as well as a very useful desk reference for design proessionals.
Great Book - Editorial/Book Info correction September 4, 2008
J. Shelton (Tampa, FL USA)
Comprehensive, detailed monograph for the student, professional, etc.
Note: Book Info above states "CD-ROM included" but mine did not come with one, there is no referral within the book to a CD, and standard bibliographic descriptions (WorldCat, Lib. of Congress) do not include any reference to a CD. I think the Book Info statement is incorrect.
