Ceramics" by Glen Nelson - Reviewed by Chizuko Shimano

The revised second edition of Glen Nelson's "Ceramics" is
available in soft cover, priced $4.95 and in hard cover, $6.75.

This is a very good reference book, readable, well illustrated,
tracing the history of ceramics from prehistoric times, through
different cultures, to the present day.

The section on Ceramic Design gives one provocative thoughts re-
garding modern trends in clay work.

The beginning potter would find help in the clearly illustrated and
explained text on forming methods of basic objects and extent of their
possibilities. 'Mysteries'' of compounding clay bodies and glazes are
in my opinion easier to grasp when explained on the blackboard but in
lieu of such a situation, the chapters dealing with the above subjects
are simply outlined to enable one to study them on one’s own. There
is an excellent chapter on kilns of various designs, stating their
advantages and drawbacks, For those contemplating building a kiln,
it would be well worth their time to read the information on the
pinterinis that one builds with.
