Truus Daalder's book *Ethnic Jewellery and Adornment*

TRUUS DAALDER'S BOOK *ETHNIC JEWELLERY AND ADORNMENT* IS NOW EXTRA-CHEAP OUTSIDE AUSTRALIATruus's book is now well known, admired and loved for its many beautiful photographs of great pieces of ethnic jewellery from many cultures and for its unique wealth of information. It is also widely understood that it has not been made to make us money, but to share our love of ethnic jewellery with others. As the Australian dollar is very, very low, buyers from outside Australia can now benefit greatly by acting. Our price outside Australia, if you buy FROM OUR WEBSITE (www.ethnicartpress.com.au), is just AU$ 140 - anywhere, including shipping. This means that, for example, in the US the book now costs about US$ 100 (cheaper even than our own Amazon price), in Europe it is around 87 euros, and in the UK 63 pounds. These are VERY low prices, and we invite you to compare them with what normally gets charged for comparable books. This book is very big, using lumi silk paper, and is hardbound in linen - all top quality. It has more than 700 large, excellent colour photos. And the informative text is PhD length. Please go to the website for the book to see - and (we hope) buy! www.ethnicartpress.com.au.

Thank you so much for your comments and your purchase, Charlotte! Truus and I of course very much appreciate both. You will find that the book in reality is far more impressive than the website. The physical impact is something very powerful which many comment on after receiving their copy. This is just one of those instances where I think a book "has it" over anything we could have done on the internet. I say this as someone who has recently published a truly vast scholarly work in the area of English Renaissance literature on-line. For that purpose, the new technology proved pretty well ideal, as it enables readers to link several matters with impressive speed, and allowed me far more content than a hard copy version would have done. But Truus's book is a work of art by itself partly because it is a "real" object. She is dealing with orders we have received, including yours, at speed. Your copy will be sent to you from within England, on Monday. Thanks again, and best wishes! - Joost
