I second obsolete.
You need "The Elements of Color: A Treatise on the Color System of Johannes Itten"
Itten is the guy who created the modern view of color theory. It's a must read.

thanks guys. i already have a good understanding of it. its just that i sometimes feel restricted in the colours i use and i am hoping that by understanding the theory i can help myself work with other colours.
plus i want to have the answers so i can justify why i have used the colours i have. and i also want to have further reading on how colour effects humans... especially with regard to ecommerce.
