In this enriching collection of eleven interrelated essays, A Way of Working explores the ancient relationship of art, order, and craft. Craft is considered as a "sort of ark" for the transmission of real knowledge about being, and about our deep creative aspirations. The book includes contributions from D. M. Dooling, Joseph Cary, Paul Jordan-Smith, Michael Donner, Harry Remde, Jean Kinkead Martine, Jean Sulzberger, Chanit Roston, and P. L. Travers. This group of authors write not as individuals but as members of a community — a guild effort. As one chapter heading put it: the alchemy of craft.

This review is from: A Way of Working: The Spiritual Dimension of Craft (Paperback)
One of the finest, sweetest little books on quality and excellence you might ever find. I found it by happenstance (? serendipity) in a used book store and have cherished it ever since. It is a lodestone. Buy it along with Eric Booth's "The Everyday Work of Art" and then help turn the tide of mediocrity and mindlessness in the world.
