Well, to tell you several truths at once, I don't know what color it is,
and I have not seen the cover (in color), only photographs of it.  The
publisher designs the book cover, and, in fact, decides on the title of
the book, for what it's worth.

However, I can shed some light.  I believe it is MANY colors.  There are
a whole bunch of letters spilling out of strange-looking boxes, which
has less than nothing to do with the contents of the book.  Apparently
the letters are all different colors, the boxes and background different
colors.  There must be some dominant color, but who knows what it might
be.

Hopefully people will just call it "Thinking in PostScript," which is
a tidy title.  It is already getting confusing referring to the books
by their colors, but it has been less confusing than referring to them
by long-winded names like "PostScript Language Tutorial and Cookbook."

I always wanted to get a copy of as many green books as I could find
and put them all on the shelf with the Green Book somewhere in the
middle of all of them.  Like so many other things in life, I never got
around to it.

Anyway, we'll just have to wait and see.
