Originally published in 1991 by Garland Publishing, the book grew out of a 1987 symposium held in conjunction with the exhibit ""Costume as Communication: Ethnographic Costumes and Textiles from Middle America and the Central Andes of South America"" at the Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology, Brown University.
