 About the book...

This book is a path-breaking effort to understand the status and problems of traditional artisans, illustrated by traditional potters, along the social as well as economic parameters and find solutions to their problems along planned developmental as well as educational parameters. This book is a must for sociologists, developmental planners and organisers interested in traditional artisans, and to adult educationists, seeking their way to a praxis of nonformal education relevant to traditional artisans and other self-employed producers.
