Beginning with the first recorded uses of color and ending in the development of our modern chemical industry, this rich yet concise exposition shows us how color pervades every aspect of our lives. Our consciousness, our perceptions, our useful appliances and tools, our playthings, our entertainment, our health, and our diagnostic apparatus – all involve color and are based in no small part on chemistry.History of Chemistry,2212-991XColorHistoryColorHistory.540Orna Mary Virginia1024092MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910437818003321The Chemical History of Color2514670UNINA
