Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. 'Brilliantly original . shimmering book. . What binds this book together and gives it a numinous quality is the tenderness that the author displays for other people's ingenious leftovers, from brotherly teeth to Puritan kites.' - Guardian'Rich, meticulous, lively' - Sunday TimesRummage tells the overlooked story of our throwaway past. Emily Cockayne extracts glittering gems from the rubbish pile of centuries past and introduces us to the visionaries, crooks and everyday do-gooders who have shaped the material world we live in today - like the fancy ladies of the First World War who turned dog hair into yarn, or the Victorian gentlemen selling pianofortes made from papier-mache, or the hapless public servants coaxing people into giving up their railings for the greater good.In this original and fascinating new history, Cockayne illuminates our relationship to our rubbish: from the simple question of how we reuse and recycle things (and which is better), to all the weird and wonderful ways it's been done in the past. She exposes the hidden work (often done by women) that has gone into shaping the world for each future generation, and she shows what lessons can be drawn from the past to address urgent questions of our waste today. An original exploration of all the ordinary, extraordinary and totally mad things we've thrown out and redeemed through the ages.

Paperback. Etat : New. With a particular emphasis on the ingenious material transformation of objects, such as the flour bags made into clothing during the Second World War and the two million Mills and Boon novels that were repurposed in the construction of the M6 toll road, Emily Cockayne presents a meticulously researched history of how we have disposed of, reused and managed objects through time.
