Part travelogue, part narrative history, 'Colour' unlocks the history of the colours of the rainbow, and reveals how paints came to be invented, discovered, traded and used. This remarkable and beautifully written book remembers a time when red paint was really the colour of blood, when orange was the poison pigment, blue as expensive as gold, and yellow made from the urine of cows force-fed with mangoes. It looks at how green was carried by yaks along the silk road, and how an entire nation was founded on the colour purple. Exciting, richly informative, and always surprising, 'Colour' lifts the lid on the historical palette and unearths an astonishing wealth of stories about the quest for colours, and our efforts to understand them.

評分與其說是“調色闆的自然史”,不如說是作者尋找顔料的旅行手記,所以無關顔色的廢話相當多,多到想從中提取有用信息都有些障礙重重。個人覺得整本書應該可以精簡到250頁左右。書中還有一些錯誤,書頁margin處有不明數字(推測可能是原版的頁碼)。
