Notes

• "Walking through London's busy streets, you would not imagine that the city boasts one of the world's most diverse manufacturing scenes. But throughout its thirty-two boroughs, people are making bicycles, ballet shoes, military uniforms, cardboard packaging, neon signs, umbrellas, craft beer and much more. This book provides a fascinating glimpse behind the doors of fifty businesses: the processes and spaces that are so often hidden from view, and the people who work there, from sole traders to workforces numbering in the hundreds" -- Back cover.
