Von der antiken sumerischen Töpferkunst zur Glasmalerei Tiffanys, angewandte Kunst bildete über Generationen hinweg einen wichtigen Teil der menschlichen Erfahrungswelt. Während die bildenden Künste in Museen und Galerien bewundert werden, ist die angewandte Kunst die Kunst des Alltäglichen, indem sie in Form von Gebrauchsgegenständen, die von prosaisch bis fantastisch reichen, Schönheit mit Funktionalität verbindet. Albert Jacquemart feiert in diesem Text die Schönheit und das künstlerische Potenzial in den alltäglichsten Gegenständen. Der Leser wird darin seine Wertschätzung der geschickten Kunstfertigkeit des produzierenden Gewerbes neu entdecken.

Henry Ford and George Washington Carver had a unique friendship and a shared vision. This book details their paths to "green" manufacturing and the start of the chemurgic movement in America. It covers a number of little known projects such as their efforts to use ethanol as a national fuel, the use of soybeans for plastic production, and the use of waterpower for factories. This study of their collaboration shows how capitalism can drive the green movement and expand American industry.
