Ceramics: The Indispensable Guide<\/strong>
\nby Duncan Hooson & Anthony Quinn

This week’s selection was a little trickier than usual due to the temporary disbanding of the New Arrivals Island during the Library’s re-carpeting project (don’t worry, New Arrivals will be back soon). Inspired by the colorful palette of wildflowers around campus, I hunted for something to brighten up the blog. It was a toss up between Vogue: The Gown<\/a><\/em> (too hot and sultry), Gems of the World<\/a><\/em> (too cold and aloof), and this one (ah, just right), which also seemed the most practical.<\/p>\n

If you haven’t dabbled in clay since your Play-Doh days, this guide might inspire you go sink your fingers into a clump of cool, creamy clay — and see what you can make of it.<\/p>\n

Both authors teach ceramics in London and their book is overflowing with ideas, techniques, glazes, tools, kilns, and firing processes. They have packed a dizzying array of material and hundreds of photographs into these pages and the subtitle of “Indispensable Guide” is well-earned.<\/p>\n

To find more books on ceramics, you can browse in the Main Collection<\/a> of books on the third floor of the Library.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
