A fascinating and idiosyncratic journey through colour — its history, its meaning, and its effect on everyday life. Janice Lindsay, an experienced colour designer with a background in art history and design, has always been passionate and curious about colour. In this book she shares a lifetime of discoveries about why colour, something we think will be simple to use and understand, is so complex. She takes us on a journey that combines history, biology, and interior design with personal insights from years of helping others choose colour and get it right. Along the way she recounts how a yellow was once made from cow’s urine and can be used as an intellectual stimulant. How blue used to be considered light black before it gained popularity and became more expensive than gold. And how vermilion red used to look better the longer it was ground — twenty years was just about long enough. Lindsay explains how the invisible colour in daylight is as essential to our bodies as air and water. Colour is not just decoration, it has the power to change how we feel and function. She tells stories of colour-blind clients, of clients who thought they were happy living without colour until they found out what they were missing, and students whose marks improved once colour was added to the halls. Lindsay explains how we have a colour wisdom that is millions of years in the making based on nature encoded into our DNA and that we need to draw on that wisdom to humanize our built environments. Colour can make a house a home. This book is about you. You and colour are linked in ways that we haven’t imagined. Beware: after reading this book you will never look at colour the same way again.

"What is postulated here is not the dogmatic laying down of a way of working. Rather the aim is to make evident one possible means of access to an experience of the color world ... and guide actual practice to Rudolf Steiner's sketch motifs--to their eminent educational power--for we recognize in them a path that can become of great significance to the developing human soul." (from the introduction) This unique workbook describes the early stages of training for painters, teachers, as well as for beginners. The stages are based on recommendations by Rudolf Steiner for the development of a renewed art of painting for our time. The book draws on Steiner's indications for teaching painting in the first Waldorf school, his lectures on color and art, and sketches he made for painters. Together, they form a self-contained system of exercises for a new, spiritually alive art.

In "Opticks," Isaac Newton presents a groundbreaking exploration of the nature of light and color, laying the foundation for modern optics. Written in 1704, this seminal work employs a combination of empirical observation and innovative experiments, rendered in a clear and precise literary style that exemplifies the burgeoning scientific discourse of the Enlightenment. Newton's insightful analysis of the properties of light, including refraction and dispersion, marks a pivotal shift in the scientific understanding of vision and reality, challenging Aristotelian notions and setting the stage for subsequent advancements in the field. Isaac Newton, a polymath, was driven by an insatiable curiosity about the natural world, which led him to delve into the study of optics after his significant contributions to mathematics and physics. His rigorous approach to experimentation and mathematical modeling is reflected in "Opticks," which not only showcases his scientific methodology but also his profound philosophical reflections on the nature of knowledge and discovery. Newton's experiences during the Black Death, which allowed him to escape university constraints and dedicate time to his studies, further influenced the innovative nature of his research. "Opticks" is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science, optics, or the Enlightenment. Newton'Äôs meticulous observations and profound insights continue to resonate within contemporary scientific inquiry, making this work essential for scholars, scientists, and curious minds alike who seek to understand the fundamental principles governing light and perception.

Colour has long been a source of fascination to both scientists and philosophers. In one sense, colours are in the mind of the beholder, in another sense they belong to the external world. Colours appear to lie on the boundary where we have divided the world into 'objective' and 'subjective' events. They represent, more than any other attribute of our visual experience, a place where both physical and mental properties are interwoven in an intimate and enigmatic way. The last few decades have brought fascinating changes in the way that we think about 'colour' and the role 'colour' plays in our perceptual architecture. In Colour Perception: Mind and the physical world, leading scholars from cognitive psychology, philosophy, neurophysiology, and computational vision provide an overview of the contemporary developments in our understanding of colours and of the relationship between the 'mental' and the 'physical'. With each chapter followed by critical commentaries, the volume presents a lively and accessible picture of the intellectual traditions which have shaped research into colour perception. Written in a non-technical style and accessible to an interdisciplinary audience, the book will provide an invaluable resource for researchers in colour perception and the cognitive sciences.
