Hands in Clay

An introduction to ceramics in two parts: part one provides an historical overview and part two provides an introduction to the creativity and the processes involved in ceramics. This edition places a new emphasis on the safety precautions and health issues involved in ceramics. New chapters on historical ceramics in the US and recent world-wide innovations build on the already thorough coverage of the evolution and current state of ceramics. The author has also added significantly to the appendices in this edition.
