Title: Why bother?
Review: There is very little of value in this book.The author has compiled color combinations that he has found in the world around us, and he has even gone so far as to give (approximate) CMYK values for the schemes. So far so good. The problem? He seems to find the same color combinations over and over again. Considering that there are sections here on Victorians, Art Deco, the Sixties, Earth tones, and Raves, one would certainly expect to find some drastically different color combinations. But flip back and forth between the "Rave" section and the "Victorian" section, and you will be surprised by how similar the schemes are. At least, I am.There are some minor assets to the book, but I would not recommend it. For those looking for swatches, I would recommend "Color Harmony 2" (ISBN 1564960668). Not only is it worlds better, it's also cheaper and smaller. And did I mention better?
