The chemistry and application of dyes,
By Cho min-ho (South Korea) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Chemistry of Colour Application (Hardcover)
This is a good book to understand application of dye. It is not so much a book of principle as a book of application to industry. So it is enough to recommende to graduate school student, for it is difficult to understand without principle fo organic chemistry.
