Blue and yellow don't make green

Has anyone had experience with this color mixing book, Blue and Yellow Don't Make Green, by Michael Wilcox? I picked it up and have been having much success so far using his color theory. He explains that there are no pure pigments that capture the true color created by light and the light rays that are reflected. His mixing is based on only six colors with six more added simply because this is all you need to mix any color found in nature. I hope I'm explaining this correctly. There is no pure red, only orange-red and violet-red, no pure blue, no pure yellow etc. Anyway, I'm having a good time with the book and anyone interested in his understanding of color should visit www.schoolofcolor.com .
