The Arcanum: The Extraordinary True Story Of The Invention Of European Porcelain by Janet Gleeson
pelicaaan's review against another edition
3.0
Much more interesting than a book about porcelain ought to be. The prose is a little clunky, but the story is worthwhile.

Easily the most exciting history of 18th century porcelain manufacturing, corporate intrigue, political corruption and abuse of power. Did I mention the alchemy? Because there's alchemy too!

Interesting, but not interesting enough for me to keep holding onto. Into the to-be-released pile.
