Tungkol sa ebook na ito

""Leather Material History"" explores the expansive story of leather, from its ancient origins as a necessity for survival to its modern role in luxury design. This book examines the ingenious methods cultures worldwide have developed to transform animal hides into durable goods. Interestingly, early tanning methods often utilized natural tannins from plants, demonstrating an early understanding of material science. The book uniquely presents a global perspective on leather, consciously avoiding a solely Eurocentric viewpoint. It traces the evolution of leather production across three sections: traditional tanning methods, the industrialization of leather production (including the rise of large-scale leather industry), and contemporary uses in fashion and other luxury goods. Understanding the history of technology involved, from basic preservation to complex industrial processes, is crucial for appreciating leather's cultural significance and environmental impact. The book uses historical sources, archaeological evidence, and case studies to support its comprehensive account.
