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. —Science Activities magazine
