Barbara Appelbaum's book Conservation Treatment Methodology has been re-printed for the 3rd time and is now available at Amazon.com.
Conservation Treatment Methodology is a practical guide to decision-making for conservation treatment of all kinds of cultural material. By presenting treatment issues in non-technical language, it establishes a common ground on which conservators and custodians can work together, giving both sides confidence about moving forward.
The book also offers useful insights for those who study and interpret works of art or artifacts that have been treated in the past.
Conservation Treatment Methodology is relevant not only to fine art collections but also to historic preservation and other non-fine-art settings including archives, libraries, and scientific, anthropological and archaeological collections.
