人類對色彩的持續探尋，改變了我們看待世界的方式從凱利綠到千禧粉，各種豐富色彩總是為我們的世界增添風采。但人造色彩未必都能媲美千變萬化的自然色彩。要仿造出最鮮亮極致的自然色彩，需要歷經千年的非凡創新，以及科學與工藝之間饒富趣味的跨領域交流，才能讓我們打造與裝飾的世界，展現出最亮麗的外觀。在《全光譜》一書中，羅傑斯帶領讀者踏上一趟漫步全球之旅，沿著最早期人類製造顏色的足跡，一路追尋到今日與未來的數位合成色彩。讀者將看到人類祖先在洞窟裡將木炭搗成糊，絲路商人競相叫賣製作最為精良的陶瓷，織品藝術家破解色彩是如何混合的數世紀之謎，再飛躍到現代，一窺代價高昂的商業間諜行動，以及永遠重新改寫色彩規則的數位革命。羅傑斯透過與本書主題同樣精彩的文筆，打開一扇通往神奇奧茲王國之門，針對人類為了創造更豔麗奪目的世界，而展開橫跨古今中外的追尋之旅，分享了其中最為生動的故事。各界讚譽亞當．羅傑斯的著作《全光譜》就是你會想讀關於色彩的一本書——閃爍著藍寶石、金寶石、綠寶石、紅玉髓在內的所有寶石光芒，點綴著我們的周遭世界。但就如掛毯上的絲線，交織其中的遠不只如此，更包括歷史、科學，以及人類文化具有多種色調的彩虹光譜。出色的科學著作向來罕見，本書便是其一。——普立茲獎作家、《試毒小組》（The Poison Squad）與《落毒事件簿》（The Poisoners Handbook）作者　黛博拉．布魯姆（Deborah Blum）我很愛有人搖醒我，讓我看清自己在夢遊期間發生了什麼事。亞當．羅傑斯在本書中便做到了這點。他讓我知道，今日隨處可見的色彩都是源自我們發明的科技！我們發明出來的色彩！真是令人大開眼界！——《紐約時報》暢銷書《必然》（The Inevitable）作者　凱文．凱利（Kevin Kelly）這本極具人性之書，將帶領讀者踏上一趟關於色彩學的千變萬化世界之旅。這正是那種會讓你以全新角度看待一切的書籍之一——你會開始到處辨識哪裡用了什麼顏料，再回頭鑽研本書，發覺隱藏其後的智識之旅。——《紐約時報》暢銷書《10種物質改變世界》（Stuff Matters）與《液體》（Liquid Rules）作者　馬克．米奧多尼克（Mark Miodownik）本書是深入鑽研其主題的書籍之最，亞當．羅傑斯則是我最愛的科學作家。閱讀本書感覺就像長時間享用一頓令人垂涎三尺的美味大餐，用餐對象還是你認識最有趣

來自反烏托邦的報導，充滿哀愁又引人入勝獲獎無數的歷史學家寫下未忘之地的歷史◎ 《大西洋雜誌》（The Atlantic）2016年最佳圖書「衛兵打開行李箱，往裡頭瞧了瞧，關上行李箱，檢查我們的傳真許可文件，然後揮揮手，讓我們進入車諾比隔離區。我關心車諾比隔離區近十年，卻到了這個時候才得以進入一窺究竟。我想起安德烈．塔可夫斯基（Andrei Tarkovsky）1979年的電影《潛行者》（Stalker）禁區（the Zone）裡的荒涼景象。在塔可夫斯基的電影及我的想像裡，禁區四處可見生鏽的工廠廠房、倒塌的電話線與被陰暗森林占據的建築物。除了人煙稀少、設下重重障礙與衛兵把守，禁區還散發著一股神祕而致命的力量，威脅要殺害暴露者的子孫，或讓他們出現突變。在塔可夫斯基的電影裡，潛行者為了賺取一小筆錢，祕密帶領冒險者進入禁區，想揭露其中的謎團。他們在夜色與濃霧的掩護下潛入，在傾頹的工業廢墟間躲避子彈。」 凱特．布朗是一位極富想像力的歷史學家，也是作家與旅行家。她認為，「歷史學家能親自走一趟自己研究的地方，真正體會自己論文的主題，一定能寫出更好的歷史作品。」在《惡托邦記》裡，她進行一場令人驚訝且不尋常的田野之旅，前往遭忽視或抹滅的邊緣地帶，探究這些地方的歷史。 她漫遊車諾比隔離區，先是在網路上，之後親自前往。她想知道現實與虛擬何者才是真正的偽造。她來到西雅圖一家飯店的地下室，檢視1942年日裔美國人被送往監禁營途中存放在地下室的個人物品。在烏克蘭的烏曼，她躲在樹上，觀看只有哈西迪猶太男性才能參加的猶太新年慶典。在俄羅斯烏拉山脈南部，她與克什特姆小鎮居民談話，當地不可見的輻射汙染物正神秘地讓生活陷入困境。最後，她回到出生地，中西部工業鐵鏽帶的伊利諾州埃爾金，考察懷「鏽」情緒的興起與自身的成長經驗，如何開啟她對現代主義荒原的探索。 布朗在本書開頭寫道：「在前往故事發生地旅行的二十年間，我遊遍部分東歐、中亞與美國西部。不知不覺地，我竟成為一名專業的災難觀光客。在撰寫歷史的過程中，我歷經一連串現代主義的荒原，一個比一個惡名遠播，一個比一個孤寂淒涼。」多年來她造訪的地方都不是旅遊勝地，而是所謂的「惡托邦」（dystopia），即被遺忘了的，甚至刻意被遺忘的厭惡之地。 《惡托邦記》帶領讀者來到這些非典型的現場，有力而動人地描述被消音、破壞或汙染的地方歷史。在講述這些過去無人知曉的
