Stacey Pierson is a senior lecturer in the History of Chinese ceramics at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
<p>This book has an impressive historical scope, from the fourteenth to the twenty-first century. It ranges over a variety of interesting topics relevant to the history of a famous commodity. In addition to discussing the economic production, social use, and reception of Ming porcelain throughout the world, it offers a novel and often amusing account of the treatment of Ming porcelain in modern popular U.K. and U.S. cultures. It also presents extensive coverage of recent English-language work on Chinese porcelain, and it attempts to put the study of Ming, and by extension Chinese, porcelain in a wider conceptual framework, that of transcultural shifts in the use and meaning of art objects.--Joe P. McDermott, University of Cambridge
