From the Publisher
Design is considered as both an art closely integrated with the director's, actor's, and playwright's vision and a craft that provides practical solutions for the physical manipulation of stage space.
Health and safety precautions for the backstage crew appear throughout in boxes labeled 'Safety Tips.'
The use and effects of color on the stage are illustrated in full color examples in Chp. 6, including lighting and costume design analyses of Terra Nova and Cabaret.
The text includes a running glossary of terms, boxed in-depth discussions of selected topics, and extensive illustrations of technical tools, equipment, and exemplary play design.
'Design Inspiration' boxes show how professional designers create the desired look (with examples from The Mystery of Irma Vep and Twelfth Night).
More than 20 new photos update the equipment sections.
The section on scene production tools is now up-to-date and includes more current technology.
The coverage of computers is now integrated throughout the appropriate chapters.
A new appendix has been added ('Revised Standard Graphic Language for Lighting Designers'), and the Listserv appendix has been updated.
Technical information has been updated throughout.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to ThriftBooks-Atlanta, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
