Product Review
I found the three volumes that make up the Palette of Color monograph series to be well written and very useful resources around which a teacher can construct a unit on the chemistry of dyes and food colors. I recommend the books highly to teachers of high school chemistry and even of college general education chemistry courses. --

Reader ReviewsOne of a three-volume set, (the others are "The Chemistry of Food Dyes" and "The Chemistry of Vat Dyes") this is an excellent reference volume for novice dyers, students of chemistry, and experienced textile artists alike. It is structured as a handbook for guiding students through classroom exercizes to develop their understanding of the physiochemical properties of dyes for woolen fibers. The editor, an award-winning high-school chemistry professor, has an easy-going manner and knowledgable style that encourage confidence in this challenging subject among lay readers.
