'Craftsmanship has again become fashionable in high places, just as
it did in the last few recessions.' The concept of craftsmanship
has never been as relevant and timely as it is today. Assailed on
all sides by - among many other tendencies - flexible working,
short-termism, portfolio careers, quick-fix training and the cult
of celebrity, it has recently re-entered public debate with a new
sense of urgency. Why? A bestseller in hardback, this series of
linked essays by the man who ran the Royal College of Art for many
years is now available in paperback, and explores the crafts in
education, in history and literature, in the contemporary arts
landscape, in the language, in the digital age, taking an
unsentimental, hard-headed look at craftsmanship today. Only when
the romantic cobwebs have been blown away, it argues, can the key
importance of the crafts be fully understood.
