The Three Dimensions of John Logie Baird
By Dr Douglas Brown
John Logie Baird (1888-1946) is remembered as the inventor of television but his work in colour, 3D and holographic television is much less well known. As are his significant contributions to other information sciences and their resulting technologies.
HELENSBURGH Heritage Trust published this book in May 2002 to mark the bicentenary of the burgh.
It is a handsome hard-backed book with many original illustrations by local artist Neil Macleod, many colour reproductions of oil and watercolour paintings, current photographs by Donald Fullarton and Neil MacLeod, and reproductions of photographs going back to the early days of photography.
