You are too funny... "the book will arrive Wednesday"! It will be a great addition to your reference library and will open up yet another whole way of seeing and understanding color far beyond charts of mixed pigment/colors. Do check out her website as she has since updated her palette/pigment choices since she first wrote the book many years ago:
