Synopsis

Whats black and white and read all over? Black & White is a visually exciting compendium that explores all things untouched by color. Though black and white lie beyond the color spectrum, theyre utterly essential to visualize the world we live in. They symbolize the tension and harmony of opposites: good and evil, positive and negative, life and death. Black & White collects amazing images and examples from mother nature and manmade culture, from penguins on ice floes to nuns on ice skates, from stripes on zebras to stripes on prisoners. Featuring hundreds of photographs, clever commentary, and a chic design, this gorgeous gift book and graphic essay explores a world thats too cool for color.
