"[The present volume] provides a selection from more than sixty-five texts tracing the development of this important area of conservation. The texts range chronologically from antiquity to the present day. They cover a wide range of subjects, including philosophies of preventive conservation, early traditions of housekeeping, the museum environment, relative humidity and temperature, pollution, biodeterioration, and light. There is also a generous selection of readings discussing future trends"--Page 4 of cover.
