There is another book available (in english): "Fat lava" by Mark Hill from England. More about ceramics from the seventies, I guess.
Really well done book, love it.

There are a couple of mistakes in Mark's book (which he acknowledges) so be aware - but it's still a cracking little book.

There has been talk of another book for several years now about to be released by an ex-member of this site however don't hold your breath.
