This is not, therefore, a book to learn a variety of beading techniques (many are simply the string-and-knot type), but an introduction to different cultures' approach to jewelry making, design choices and preferred materials. What the projects require is not skill so much as the appropriate beads, which can be quite exotic (praise heavens for online bead shops). As far as I'm concerned the DIY projects are secondary to the research and tremendous inspiration World Beads provides for both jewelrymaking and illustration. And if I haven't made that clear enough: the book is plain gorgeous.
