If you specifically want a book that discusses colour in regard to web
design then Lynda Weinman's Designing Web Graphics.3 has a huge amount of
colour info in there.

If you want a broader overview of colour theory then try Johannes Itten's
The Elements of Color:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0471289299/o/qid=985008559/sr=8-1/ref
=aps_sr_b_1_1/103-5650257-6522241

Or the full (expensive), unabridged version of this - The Art of Color:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0471289280/ref=sim_books/103-5650257-
6522241

You could also try Josef Albers' Interaction of Color:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0300018460/ref=sim_books/103-5650257-
6522241

Hope this helps
