The world as we experience it is full of colour. This book defends
the radical thesis that no physical object has any of the colours
we experience it as having. The author provides a unified account
of colour that shows why we experience the illusion and why the
illusion is not to be dispelled but welcomed. He develops a
pluralist framework of colour-concepts in which other, more
sophisticated concepts of colour are introduced to supplement the
simple concept that is presupposed in our ordinary colour
experience. The discussion draws on philosophical and scientific
literature, both historical and modern, but it is not technical,
and will appeal to a broad range of philosophers, cognitive
scientists and historians of science.
