Palaspas, a richly photographed book, begins with how the palm leaf has figured in our early history and culture, then highlights its myriad manifestations in the religious, social and economic practices of our people in various communities all over the country. Enlivening the detailed instructions in creating the ephemerally beautiful forms are the stories behind the author's encounter with each krus sa lukay, tipaklong, minais, manuk-manuk, bolang dako, kinasing, patupat ti sinublan, and many more.
