Progress in colour studies

Colour is studied from many angles, and this collection gathers work from vision science, psychology, psycholinguistics, linguistics, anthropology, onomastics, philosophy, archaeology and design. Its chapters grew out of talks and poster presentations given at the Progress in Colour Studies (PICS2016) conference, which took place at University College London in September 2016.

The volume carries on a line of PICS meetings that came before it, and those earlier gatherings focused on how colour relates to language and cognition. Every chapter went through peer review and was revised afterward before inclusion.
