'this resource…provides a fascinating insight into how new technologies are expanding the way in which    textiles can be used' To paraphrase a well-worn slogan, I never knew there was so much to textiles - and
   the lack of colour illustrations is no barrier to enjoyment. Written for teachers and students of textiles and    fashion, this photocopiable resource provides a fascinating insight into how new technologies are

   expanding the way in which textiles can be used. Nickel titanium springs are being trialled as a means of    increasing fire resistance; clothing with integrated sound systems is on its way; as are sleep-inducing    aromas for our bedclothes. Fascinating stuff.
