Book Reviews of The Encyclopedia of Jewelry-Making Techniques: A Comprehensive Visual Guide to Traditional and Contemporary Techniques

Book Review: same old viewing problem
Summary: 1 Stars

Once again I find myself reviewing not the book, but the "search inside" function. This one is just plain weird. Whoever decided what was to be shown of the iside of the book, left in all the instructions (!) and blanked out all of the pictures - as if you could rip off the techniques from looking at the pictures! Now the problem with this way of displaying - or not displaying the contents of a book, is that I want to see what SORT of jewelry is being turned out - or how will I know whether it is worth my while. Or my money. This is where a real bookstore comes in I guess. Or a library. Browsing is necessary to buying some sorts of books.
