Bearing a startling hologram of a skull on its front cover, this  volume is a complete, up-to-date reference guide to its subject. For  the uninitiated, the first two chapters give a thorough introduction to  this complex technology. There is also a chapter on available  educational facilities, plus a glossary of technical terms.   For the professional holographer, the central part of the book  covers materials and techniques in detail.   Also included is an international listing of over 1000 holography  businesses and personalities, plus a 10pp bibliography, including  French, German, Portuguese and Russian, as well as English language  publications.   As publishers, Ross Books are in the unique position of offering  advertising pages which are collector's items in themselves, in this  case from American Bank Note Hologaphics (4pp), Light Impressions and  Max Image.

Shoebox Holography was developed with the aid of high school students. It describes in detail how to make a hologram using a simple inexpensive laser pointer. The book is intended as a science project for beginners. More serious students can buy the Holography Handbook which describes how to create a home studio for making holograms. Shoebox Holography has been used by numerous high schools as well as amateurs who are just getting started making holograms.

The original version of this book contained holograms from the vendors and many of them are no longer in business. Therefore this version of the book contains everything that was in the original version but it has no holograms.Hold the hologram in front of you and slowly tilt it from side to side. You can see around each side of the image! Now, slowly tilt the hologram up and down. Watch each of the “televised” images change! Look closely at the hologram as you continue to move it around to see additional visual effects.

It was done to demonstrate the three types of items that you can put in a embossed hologram. These are flat images, Computer Generated Holograms (CGH) and Video.

Holography MarketPlace 6th edition

REVIEWs:“The first edition of this annual directory covers artistic holography, with future plans to include other aspects of this fast-developing technology. The non-technical introductory text describes holographic processes and a glossary defines terms. A well-organized international directory, arranged in four sections, includes vendors by type, procedures, sellers, holography in education and equipment. Each section provides a chart with vendors and categories followed by an alphabetical list of companies by country, with addresses, telephone numbers, and category codes. The chart on education quickly identifies museums and workshops. RECOMMENDED .. as the most current and comprehensive directory of holography.” - Library Journal****************************** “This work is packed with a wide variety of information about the holography industry. The cover and several insert pages illustrate different types of holograms covered in the text. Librarians will find the topical chapters, which explain and illustrate most areas in holography, very worthwhile. Chapter 10 provides conventional MarketPlace information, such as copyright holder, manufacturer, chain of distribution, distributor, wholesaler, and retailer. It also covers the year in review. Chapters 11 through 13 deal with holography business, business by category, and individuals in the industry. The volume concludes with a bibliography and glossary, which explains such terms as cross talk, embossed hologram, rainbow hologram, and shadowgram. ” - American Reference Books Annual*******************“The latest edition presents many changes: an enhanced layout, new contributions and hologram science, numerous samples, and addresses of all hologram companies in the world. As a standard library reference, it packs in everything businesses need for acquiring, selling and understanding holographs and their applications.” - The Bookwatch***************** “Holography MarketPlace is an extensive international directory of display holography. It is edited by Franz Ross and Elizabeth Yerkes, and published by Ross Books of Berkeley, CA. It begins with an introduction to holography for the beginner and explains display holography with chapters on types of holograms, artwork, contracts, producers, buying and selling holograms, education, equipment and supplies, a bibliography, and an excellent glossary.The chapter on types of holograms gives brief and clear descriptions of the varieties of holograms and how they are created. All graphic designers and students about to embark on their first holographic journey should read the chapter on artwork. The chapter on contracts points out many legal pitfalls to avoid. Holography MarketPlace belongs on every holographic reference shelf and will likely get even better with the coming issues. I commend Franz Ross for seeing the importance of holography and being courageous enough to publish books in this little understood field of science and art; includes charts for quick reference. Of special note is the bibliography of over 200 holography books and articles and a listing of University of California library call letters "- L.A.S.E.R.
