Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Using a wide number of case studies Eilean Hooper-Greenhill uses a multi-disciplinary approach to analyzing museums. Drawing on material culture studies and art history she studies the collections and how they were collected; using cultural studies and sociology she examines the social and cultural role of museums today and in the past; applying deduction theory she addresses the production of knowledge though exhibitions; and finally touching on psychology she explores the experience of museum visitors.
