选项分析：

(B)also Women's Work, a more general account of cloth manufacture, is an expert authority about

【错误】 见(E)。

(C)of Women's Work, a more general account about early cloth manufacture, is an authority on

【错误】 见(E)。

(D)of Women's Work, a more general account about early cloth manufacture, is an expert authority about

【错误】 见(E)。

(E)Women's Work, a more general account of early cloth manufacture, is an authority on

【正确】 正确使用了“both X and Y”结构，将“Prehistoric Textiles”和“Women's Work”平行在一起，且避免了“expert authority”和“and also”这样的语义重复，表述简洁。

【大意】 Elizabeth Barber，《Prehistoric Textiles》和《Women's Work》的作者，是古代社会纺织物专家。

解题思路：

“expert”和“authority”语义重复，“and”和“also”语义重复，因此只有(E)最简洁。
