Full Description
This engaging textbook teaches key chemistry concepts through art, art history and art preservation. The book contains seven chapters of introductory material covering the necessary basic topics such as atomic structure, color, types of bonding, and vision using examples from art and the remaining twelve chapters introduce a variety of art topics from a chemical perspective. Topics include pigments for paints, binders, dyes, photography, and metallurgy, additional chemistry concepts are introduced as needed. The book avoids mathematical explanations to better suit a non-science major audience, instead focusing on a conceptual yet practical chemistry understanding.
