Conservation of Historic Buildings and Their Contents cover

The conference entitled 'Where Conservation Meets Conservation', held at De Montfort University, Leicester on 9 September 2002 provided the opportunity to explore the interface between historic buildings and their contents by recognizing the interrelationships between architectural and object conservation. Within this, consideration was given to the role of conservation science and technology in achieving appropriate and sustainable solutions. The emphasis of the conference was on raising awareness at a practical interdisciplinary level and providing a platform for sharing knowledge and experience.

This is a book that deals with the 'ins and outs' of conservation in a very thought provoking way. It should be given the widest distribution possible and be accepted as essential reading for all professionals involved in conservation. Journal of Architectural Conservation This publication demonstrates the commitment required to maintain a respect for the past and provide inspiration for future generations. This book will interest not only people with a fascination of the past but highlight the new challenges that preservation and conservation will present everybody in the years to come.
