LUMLEY, ROBERT (EDITOR) — The Museum Time-Machine

London, Comedia/Routledge. 1988, 1st Printing. Trade Paperback, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. 241 pages. Square tight copy with light wear on covers from rubbing and interior is unmarked. "Museums are an international growth industry. Not only are they increasing in numbers, but they are aquiring new functions in the organization of cultural activities. It is through museums that societies represent their relationship to their own history and to that of other cultures and peoples. Today there are great differences and conflicts both inside and outside museums about how this should be best done, leading those concerned with running them to question the traditional concepts of what a museum is, what it can offer its public, and how history is conceived and presented.". Very Good.
