SLL Lighting Handbook

The SLL Lighting Handbook has been written to forge a link between the Society's existing major publications; the SLL Code for Lighting (which offers recommendations on lighting for a wide range of applications) and the SLL Lighting Guides (which provide detailed guidance on specific lighting applications). The SLL Lighting Handbook is designed to be complementary to the SLL Code for Lighting but to go beyond it in terms of applications and background information without getting into the fine detail of the Lighting Guides. The Handbook is intended to be the first-stop for anyone seeking information on lighting. It is aimed not just at lighting practitioners but also at lighting specifiers and students of lighting. For all three groups it is comprehensive, up-to-date and easily understandable. The contents summarise the fundamentals of light and vision, the technology of lighting and guidance on a wide range of applications, both interior and exterior.
