Review

Full-color photographs dominate the pages, generously illustrating each step. In a clear and dynamic voice, the author gracefully weaves information on Balinese spiritual ritual practices and the dangers of overproduction into the explanation of this tiny but oh-so-powerful grain." -- Reviewer "Kirkus Reviews"
