Summary: Excellent Resource
Comment: I teach digital media and design to grade eleven and twelve students. This is the only book on Color that my students responded to with enthusiasm. The book covers color theory very basically. However, it does an excellent job of covering the more important topics of the meaning and psychology of colors and color combinations. The author uses good examples for each section and the book can be used as a learning tool or a resource you can use again and again. My students found the many pantone color combination swatches very useful in helping setup the color schemes for their designs. My students and I recommend this book highly, You might say this review is 5 stars taken 80 times.

Summary: Pantone's Guide to Communicating with Color
Comment: I probably use Pantone's Guide to Communicating with Color more often than any other design resource book. It's the first book I refer to when starting a new project if I'm the one to determine the color palette. Not only does the book give a good overview of what different colors mean to a viewer, it includes more than 600 color palettes in 28 categories. Each category lists the feeling that is evoked and provides Pantone numbers for each palette - a "grab and go" feature I've used on low-budget and/or rush jobs.
Finally, the book is full of outstanding real-world examples of projects using the palettes discussed. Even if I'm working on a project with an already established color palette, I turn to this book for design inspiration.
In my opinion, this is a must-have book for any designer.

Summary: Excellent to use to help customers choose their color scheme
Comment: This book is packed with great color combinations catorgorized into color schemes by the emotional moods they generate. When I am working with clients in web design, I use this book to help them focus on the tone of their website or product. First, they choose from the many categories such as Classic, Strong, Energetic, Calm, etc., and from there they choose one or two of the perfectly matched color combinations for their basic website colors. It's a great visual tool!
Also included are some basics on color theory, setting moods with color, and some useful advice in choosing appropriate colors for different projects.
Well written, easy to read, and to the point, this book has become a favorite on my desk!
