Publisher's Synopsis
This book explains how we use colour in different ways: to convey information, to attract attention and to warn against possible danger. We use colour both to make ourselves visible as well as to conceal ourselves in our surroundings. Colour also plays a vital part in the customs and traditions of different cultures and helps us to express our beliefs and sense of identity. The book also includes opportunities for investigations and project work which can be carried out at home or in the classroom.
