| The only defense against a surfeit of fakes in the antiques market is self-education, and the author's six-by-nine-inch paperback manual is a useful recent publication for this purpose. Maintaining an outline form throughout its nine chapters, Assume Nothing serves best as a good start for beginners who might otherwise be lost in a maze of antiques terminology and procedures. An excellent suggested reading list is included.
