| Publisher Description: In virtually all countries of the world, men, and to a lesser extent women, are today dressed in similar clothes. This book gives a compelling account of the process by which this has happened. At the same time it takes seriously those places where this process has not occurred, or has been reversed, providing explanations for these developments. |
