The Red and the Real offers a new approach to longstanding philosophical puzzles about what colors are and how they fit into the natural world. Jonathan Cohen draws on color science, psychology, phenomenology, semantics, and ontology in arguing that colors are identical to certain functional roles involving perceptual effects on subjects.
