"Revised version of my doctoral dissertation, done for Yale University in 1976."
 

"Treats the corpus of Aegean faience as an integral group of objects and places it within the context of the Bronze Age faience industry as a whole. . The major portion of the book is devoted to an examination of some 200 faience objects from Crete, the Greek mainland and several Aegean islands. The pieces include vessels, human and animal figurines, inlays, plaques, beads, ornaments, and seals, many of which are remarkable from a technical and artistic standpoint.
