Theories, Technologies, Instrumentalities of Color is the outcome of a workshop, held in Leuven, Belgium, in May 2000. The editors bring together contributions from philosophy, history, classics, psychology, and anthropology to discuss the production of theories, technologies and instrumentalities - the phenomeno-technical ecology - of color. Approaching the topic from a variety of backgrounds, the contributors problematise color and discuss the distinctions, concepts, assumptions, and assertibility, warrants taken for granted by "color."

Reviews for Theories, Technologies, Instrumentalities of Color
Saunders characterizes the book as a movement from a 'homogeneous, hierarchical' to a 'heterogeneous, peas-in-a-pod' understanding of color, and, indeed, the profusion of approaches contained in the volume indicates that there are many ways to approachthe subject.
