Summary:
"A lively account of our age-old quest for brighter colors, which changed the way we see the world, from the best-selling author of Proof: The
Science
of Booze"--From publisher.
Our world practically vibrates with colors, but the human-made versions haven't always matched nature's kaleidoscopic array. Rogers traces an arc from the earliest humans to our digitized, synthesized present and future. From cave paintings to
modern
corporate espionage, he explores the digital revolution that is rewriting the rules of
color
forever. -- adapted from jacket.
