"Nascimento provides a lively and ethnographically rich account of how this iconic fashion product is made and what it means for those who produce it." * Exertions "This book is a beautifully-crafted ethnography of the multiple and complex meanings of weaving among those involved in the Harris Tweed industry. The book takes the central concept of 'work' but expands it through both ethnography and theory." * Magnus Course, University of Edinburgh "This is an excellent book . It is a smart and refreshing contribution to the anthropology of work and labour, showing the importance of place and place-making in the production of a global commodity. I wish more academic books were written in the same jargon-free and engaging style." * Rebecca Prentice, University of Sussex.
