Reviews

'Not simply an engineer's labels for different parts of the visible spectrum, colors cut deep into our emotions and splash all over our cognition. Colors are … a big deal, and this book takes one on an introductory journey into why.' Mark Changizi, Director of Human Cognition, 2AI Labs, Indiana

'This valuable compendium of current research is impressive in both scope and quality of contributions. There is nothing else like it in the field of color studies.' C. L. Hardin, Professor Emeritus, Syracuse University, New York
