Title: Semillas de industria
Description: "Outstanding collection of ethnographic and historical essays, extended commentaries, and summaries that examine changes in technology, markets, and production among Mesoamerican craft makers. Contributions focus on environmental issues, the conquest, the role of anthropological research, and colonial history in the construction of present-day indigenous resistance and agricultural change. Particularly valuable are essays by Nash exploring the contradictions of craft production in Mexico, and by Turok and Morris discussing change and continuity among Chamulan women weavers"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
