  • Valid, concise, factual data about the apparel industry.

    I've only had a chance to skim through the book but from what I see it's a comprehensive and thorough overview of apparel manufacturing and it's industry. I've been working in apparel for 23 years and I can see that this text is clear and easier than most to understand.
