Wow!  I'm more interested in the Scientific Analysis of Ancient and Historic 
Textiles.  Based on the description, it might provide more information 
regarding the weave and fibers of the textiles which, I think, might provide 
vital clues as to the how and why of fabric behavior on the human body.  For 
example, if one could look at the spin of the fiber and the weave of the fiber, 
it could explain why certain extant fabrics in costumes seem to be more 
stretchy and not wrinkle or more rigid, causing stress wrinkles.

I had it on order at a substantially better price.. let's see if they 
honor the price on my original order.  BTW other booksellers are 
still offering it at a pretty good price.
