Скачать или смотреть Fiber Talk with Virginia Postrel

Virginia Postrel joins us this week. She is author of the book "The Fabric of Civilization: How Textiles Made the World." This is a must-read book that will put a 180-deg. turn on your perspective of the role of fiber, thread, and cloth in the history of civilization. Virginia demonstrates, in a very enjoyable read, that fibers, which we tend to take for granted as we use them in our art/hobby activities, have been at the very core of the development of art, industry, and economics, essentially since humans appeared on this planet. We also learned some interesting things about weaving and dyeing. Virginia is a fascinating person who has built a career for herself sharing her perspective through columns, magazine articles, and several books. We're confident you'll enjoy the conversation we had with her and encourage you to pick up a copy of "The Fabric of Civilization." It will get your wheels spinning.--Beth and Gary
