Science for Potters, by Linda Bloomfield, covers those aspects of science that are useful to potters and that help to give a deeper understanding of ceramic materials and processes.

You’ll learn about:

• the basics of chemistry in clear and simple terms
• how the chemistry and structure of clay bodies affects their working properties
• what makes a stable glaze
• how materials interact in a glaze
• glaze faults and how to correct them
• substitutions for glaze materials that are no longer available
• the glaze unity molecular formula and why it’s so important
