Editorial Reviews

Review

“This is an ambitious book, setting out as it does to explore the gamut of ‘new’ museum theory and practice. The essays in this book are diverse, but together they suggest virtually all of the recent major intellectual and political shifts within the museum world.” (Museum Anthropology, Summer 2008)

“This book is inspiring and … offers an excellent vision of why and how the museum will matter more in the 21st century.” (Muse)

Review

“This book offers a fresh approach to teaching museum studies – combining a synoptic view of prevailing museum theories with pragmatic end of chapter review questions.”
–Flora Edouwaye S. Kaplan, New York University

“An excellent book for students of museums. In developing a creative and effective analytical toolkit for critical museum visitors, this original volume will also prove essential for aspiring museum professionals.”
–Eilean Hooper-Greenhill, University of Leicester
