Book Price $0 : The Word ’batik’ Is Possibly Of Malay Origin From The Word ’tik’ Meaning ’to Drip’ Or ’to Drop.’ The Term Is Applied To A Resist Dye Technique Invented Independently In Locations As Diverse As Ancient Egypt, Japan And Turkestan. Batik Is A Remarkably Flexible Textile Technique And Is Suited To Small-scale Methods Of Production, But Demand From The Fashion And Tourism Industries Is Increasing. This Volume Brings Together The Experiences And Concerns Of The International Community Of Batik Producers.
