Dust (Object Lessons) Paperback – January 28, 2016

I have studied dust in museum collections for many years, and was writing a review article. I came upon this book and thought that it would be a "cute", anecdotal and interesting read. If that is what you are looking for, you, as I, completely miss the boat. What I received was a deeply moving treatise on the philosophy of how we deal with dust, and what the term "dust" has meant and means in human history and thought. Not an easy read for a technical person like me, but well worth the effort.
