1: Must Have Reference Book for Lighting Design
This book was an extremely helpful tool when trying to understand lighting and all of the elements that are considered when creating a lighting design! I knew practically nothing about lighting until I read this book. While it is simple enough for someone that is new to lighting, like me, to comprehend;I am now able to carry on conversations with lighting designers and actually know what I am talking about. The pictures and diagrams were perfect and very easy to understand! I recommend this book to anyone that wants to learn about lighting or needs a good lighting reference guide to add to their library!

2: All you needed to know about lighting in one book
I found this book very helpfull in every form of lighting. If there was something that I needed to know or look up, there was a chapter for that topic. Sage made it easy to understand what is nessarry for good lighting design. His examples and pictures makes it helpful for any person just at the beginning stage of design.

4: LOVED IT!!!
This book is so fantastic that I emailed the author directly. Here is what I told him:
I really LOVE your book! (LOVE...LOVE...LOVE IT!) It is just what I wanted and needed for my students. I am planning to use it for my new online lighting class to launch spring 2009. I have found your power points helpful also...thank you so much!
Here is what I didn't tell him:
The Architecture of Light reads like a lighting novel instead of a textbook...I just wanted to keep reading and reading. It is the ONLY lighting textbook I've ever read that didn't put me to sleep! The Architecture of Light is not only interesting and practical; it also easy to read, easy to understand and I could hear Sage's enthusiasm seeping through the pages as I read it.
Sage Russell offers readers a refreshing perspective on how to create with light and his book truly transformed my understanding of this subject. Educators, designers and students alike will find his book to be a valuable & excellent resource on their path to understanding and mastering lighting concepts and techniques.
I loved it...and so will you!

5: THE ARCHITECTURE OF LIGHT
THIS WAS AN INTERESTING READ ALL AROUND. VERY INFORMATIVE, AND WELL WRITTEN. I ENJOYED THE SHORT CHAPTERS, IT MADE IT EASIER TO TO PICK UP WHERE I LEFT. THE AUTHOR DOES A GREAT JOB OF EXPLAINING LIGHTING IN A WAY THAT ANYONE CAN UNDERSTAND, NOT JUST PEOPLE IN THE LIGHTING FIELD. GOOOD JOB SAGE.
