Tools and Practices: Change and Continuity in the Cambodian Countryside
Reyum Institute of Arts and Culture

This book considers tools and practices of the Cambodian countryside. The book includes an illustrated catalogue of 50 tools describing both their use and the way in which the tool is locally made. This catalogue section is richly illustrated with black and white drawings of the tools described as well as their method of use. A separate section of photo essays traces in detail the changes which three practices (palm juice collection, banana leaf wrapping, and fishing net floats) have undergone in the face of modernisation. An introductory essay locates both sections of the book within the larger context of contemporary Cambodia.
