In Arlene Evans's book, "Color is in the Eye of the Beholder", we learn that many people use the word "colorblind" incorrectly. Most people are not "blind" to color, but simply don't see as wide a range of colors. The word we should be using to describe this is DVD or Color Vision Deficiency.
One of the stories shared in this wonderful, small book is about a mother who learns about her son's moderate CVD and exclaims, "My husband was so frustrated this morning because he tried to teach colors to our son!" Now she and her husband knew why the small boy was unable to distinguish some of his colors. Ms. Evans goes on to explain the best colors for classroom activities, the different ways CVD is caused (acquired versus genetics) and much more.
This book, written for adults, is a good companion to "Seeing Color: It's My Rainbow, Too" which could be easily shared with children. There is an excellent glossary, bibliography and index in the back. This book belongs in the personal library of every elementary school nurse and teacher.』 『If your life were without color or with reduced color vision, in what ways would it be different? You'll explore the possibilities in this highly informative, user-friendly and practical guide.
Color is in the Eye of the Beholder explores life with little color, a common genetic disorder affecting approximately eight-ten percent of people worldwide.
From learning color names to selecting appropriate occupations, Color is in the Eye of the Beholder covers all facets of color vision deficiency (CVD), or colorblindness, including:
*Differentiating between CVD and colorblindness *Learning about color *Adapting to a color-coded world *Understanding inherited and acquired color vision deficiency and colorblindness *Negotiating the working world *Identifying and treating CVD』

The color schemes don't look very attractive, and the usage of the guide isn't very clear to me. All in all, I would recommend using Adobe's (online) Kuler application instead of this set.』 『For designers of all stripes, here are all five volumes of this ever-popular (over half a million sold in the series), ever-reliable color reference series back in print and in a new boxed set that brings them together for the first time.

Volume one presents innovative color combinations, volume two is concerned with brightness, volume three with pattern, volume four with tone, and volume five with the ways in which color combinations can be used to represent emotion.

IPhone 3G used's review (Those were the days...) 『There is a story told, of a poor Italian man who lived in a small house with dirt floors. His only true possession was a painting that has been handed down through his family. He hung it over his fireplace. Well, rumors spread and a investigating Art Historian found that the painting was a lost Bottichelli , valued at several million dollars. After the discovery was made public, the man was forced to sell the painting as he could not afford security or insurance for it. This painting that was once appreciated for its beauty was now appreciated for its large price tag.
The point of this, and there is one, is that comics were once valueless pieces of old paper. People loved them anyways, and loved them enough to write this little book. "All in Color for a Dime" has a secret that modern comic collectors may have lost. It exudes joy for the four-color wonders know as comics. There is so much excitement in recounting the lost but not forgotten Captain Marvel, or even gaining new found respect for Popeye. All those little treasures are recounted in personal stories. Comics for the love of it, and not for the price tag. Reading Golden Age comics for the stories, what a great concept!
However, as a modern comics collector, I seem unable to ignore price tags entirely. I must admit I chucked when one of the writers was astounded to learn that a mint Action Comics #1 could be sold for up to $300.00. Those were the days.』
(A Classic.......) 『This is a classic reprint. Authentic information from when comics were real.』
(Highly recommended) 『I read this book four times when I was in junior high and high school, and I'm so glad to see it in print again. Great history, great pictures, and must have for comic book fans everywhere.』
(A great look at the Golden Age of Comics.) 『This book by Lupoff and Thompson is a pioneering work. Books on comics used to focus on daily strips and almost always glossed over comic books entirely. This was the first to give us the background of the artists, writers, and the charecters themselves. Well worth the money.』

IPhone 3G used's review (What Color Is Elmo?) 『This is an excellent book for an infant or toddler. It is one of my 10 month old's favorites. The large, bright, colorful pictures always capture her attention. Each page asks if Elmo is one of several different colors, then says what IS that color (for example, Elmo is not orange, but Zoe's basketball is). This is a great book in which small children can learn about colors and also see their favorite Sesame Street characters.』 『Elmo's friends and their favorite objects help the reader to learn colors.』

Usually ships in 24 hours IPhone 3G used's review (Good Companion piece) 『I bought both of the books, and this is a great companion piece to them for quick color sampling. I would recomend getting them all though.
-JR』 『This CD-ROM includes all 1250 color combinations from Leslie Cabarga's two best-selling color books: The Designer's Guide to Color Combinations and The Designer's Guide to Global Color Combinations. These books were the first to not only show color swatches in context, but to supply the CMYK and RGB color formulas so readers could re-create the colors to use in their own web and print designs. Now, all 1250 color combinations are provided on disk in both Illustrator and Photoshop files for Mac and PC so you can sample the swatches with the eyedropper tool, rather than having to type the RGB and CMYK percentages.
The first Designer's Guide to Color book provided 500 historic color combinations from the Victorian, Art Deco, Atomic 50s, Psychedelic 60s and Current periods. The second book provided 750 combinations of colors derived from the art and design of Asia, Africa, Europe, Eastern Europe, Middle and Far East, as well as from the USA. The Designer's Guide to Color Combinations CD-ROM contains none of the interesting and amusing text captions, the sample layouts that show how to arrange the colors, or the many wonderful illustrations from the two books. What it does contain are 1250 sets of scintillating color combinations covering every conceivable mood and manner from warm and passionate to super cool. The CD-ROM is a terrific companion piece to the books enabling you to quickly locate the swatch sets from any page, open only the files you wish and copy the colors right into your own designs. If you do not own either of the books, the CD-ROM is still a fantastic way to browse for great color combinations by opening any files at random and selecting your favorites.』

The book reminded me of a National Geographic, mostly photos and captions but little text. All photos are on fresh tissue and we receive all our placentas fixed but it is good nonetheless. For micro, the AFIP book on placental pathology is a great adjunct.』 『
Careful evaluation of the placenta can often give much insight into disorders of pregnancy in the mother and fetus. The techniques of gross placental examination are not difficult, but a systematic approach is necessary to be complete. Color Atlas of Gross Placental Pathology, Second Edition is designed to aid in the careful and thorough gross examination of the placenta by providing an illustrated manual of examination that includes normal variations, abnormal findings, as well as unusual pathology.
"...this atlas contains a wealth of important information for pathologists examining the placenta and provides superb illustrations. This atlas is highly recommended for all those engaged in pathologic examination of the placenta."
Archives of Pathology&Laboratory Medicine
"The quality of any atlas depends on clear and appropriate illustrations and concise text in a format that allows for rapid identification of specific entities. This atlas has both. The quality of the illustrations is top rate."
