Ranging from Homer to Picasso, and from the Iranian Revolution to The Wizard of Oz, this spirited and radiant book awakens us anew to the role of color in our lives

Our lives are saturated by color. We live in a world of vivid colors, and color marks our psychological and social existence. But for all color's inescapability, we don't know much about it. Now authors David Scott Kastan and Stephen Farthing offer a fresh and imaginative exploration of one of the most intriguing and least understood aspects of everyday experience.

Kastan and Farthing, a scholar and a painter, respectively, investigate color from numerous perspectives: literary, historical, cultural, anthropological, philosophical, art historical, political, and scientific. In ten lively and wide-ranging chapters, each devoted to a different color, they examine the various ways colors have shaped and continue to shape our social and moral imaginations. Each individual color becomes the focal point for a consideration of one of the extraordinary ways in which color appears and matters in our lives. Beautifully produced in full color, this book is a remarkably smart, entertaining, and fascinating guide to this elusive topic.

Great value/Runs small however!!
Coming from 30 years in the garment industry with a dozen in men's formal wear I can attest to this being a great value! It is well put together/stitched but runs small so absolutely order a size up from what you would normally order. I am not sure how they came to the inches measured but they are definitely off. Will be donating the one I received to bless someone else and ordering the next size up!

Amazing value
Super nice quality jacket for the price... I was shocked how nice it was actually. For me it wasn't the right fit though... Amazon recommended a size M (5'9" 145lbs) and it was way too big. Was not the slimmest of slims either, so it just felt too big and I ended up returning it. But, the item itself was really nice so I still think it's a 5-star jacket. The color, fabric, and sewing were top notch. Oh, I also wasn't a fan of the faux white pocket square... to me this is a blazer that could look nice with jeans but the white pocket square makes it look a little too formal. I'd have kept it if it fit properly and remove that little piece of fabric.
