This book addresses issues facing manufacturers, suppliers, and researchers of whitewares around the world. Discussed as solutions that will increase productivity are traditional ceramic manufacturing problems from the perspective of applying recent advances in technology. Booknews Proceedings of the July 1995 conference, held in Alfred, New Yorkthe first of its kind in some 40 yearsfor manufacturers of sanitaryware, dinnerware, tile, and electrical porcelain; raw material and equipment suppliers for those industries; and researchers in the field. Thirty-one essays address persistent problems such as eliminating glazing defects and finding a practical way to measure plasticity; such problems will no doubt yield to renewed scientific investigation in a field where science has lagged for 50 or so years.
