Description
Giving an interpretation of the relationship between museums and cities, this book presents a view of the idea of the museum, proposing that it is, or should be, a repository of the artefacts of the past and a continuation of the city street in the present. The author's premise is that the museum and the city street are continuous with each other.
"'I am very enthusiastic about this book. It puts forward a very interesting view of the idea of the museum. It is fresh and original, and written with verve. - Mel Gooding"
