Rezensionen

While an anthology can do little more than introduce topics and provide roadmaps for further exploration, The New Politics of the Handmade does this well, covering not only current research but also providing copious notes, a helpful index and numerous colour illustrations. This is a volume to keep, and an offering that makes me hope for more to follow. Galleries West
