This is a rare occasion when rich illustrations are trumped by incredible research and writing that explore the relationships between things we buy, use, and exchange. Broken into three main sections - Making, Movement, and Meaning - Cooke’s book connects material, technique, and style that shape objects around the world. At a time when international connection is under immense political strain, this book shows us how storied, complex, and beautifully interconnected we are.
