Gebundenes Buch

Clay

A Human History

Beschreibung

"A master compiler, Allan seamlessly includes interviews, anecdotes, and amazing facts, even highlighting holes in the archive, such as those surrounding Ladi Kwali, a famous Nigerian potter whose words are not captured firsthand anywhere, despite her widespread acclaim. Readers can expect to range remarkably far and wide with this book, from prehistoric societies to Mars, all in pursuit of clay."--Provided by publisher.
