Learning to See
"Brandston's holistic approach to lighting is reflected in the section titles of the book: Learning to See, Taking Responsibility, Creativity, and Communication. In the first section, he emphasizes the importance of understanding light relative to context, culture, demographics, and scale. The next section is about the ethics of delivering creativity - within oneself and to the client - and the need to clearly communicate the creative vision to the client. In third section, Brandston discusses how to be creative: be loose, think, and lose one's inhibitions.

The book ends with appendices about lighting terms, ethics and design, and wit and wisdom." -- Publisher's description.
