Synopsis
1. The Handbook offers the first modern, comprehensive overview of subjects relevant to the conservation and preservation of books. 2. The chapters in the book will provide an in-depth understanding of the materiality of books, whilst also encouraging readers to reflect on the practical considerations involved in their analysis and treatment. It will thus be an essential resource for book conservators, conservation students and academics, heritage scientists, curators, librarians, and other collections care professionals around the world. 3. There is no competition: the last book on this subject was published in 1996. This is the first modern (and possibly the first truly international) book to be published on this topic., Conservation of Books is the highly-anticipated reference work on global book structures and their conservation, offering the first modern, comprehensive overview on this subject. The volume takes an international approach to its subject. Written by over 70 specialists in conservation and conservation science based in 19 countries, its 26 chapters cover traditional book structures from around the world, the materials from which they are made and how they degrade, and how to preserve and conserve them. It also examines the theoretical underpinnings of conservation: what and how to treat, and the ethical, cultural, and economic implications of treatment. Technical drawings and photographs illustrate the structures and treatments examined throughout the book. Ultimately, readers gain an in-depth understanding of the materiality of books in numerous global contexts and reflect on the practical considerations involved in their analysis and treatment. Conservation of Books is a quintessential reference work for book conservators and anyone working with books, such as collection managers, librarians, curators, dealers, collectors, historians, and related professionals. It is also an indispensable text for students to complement hands-on training in this field., This highly-anticipated reference work on global book structures and their conservation offers the first modern, comprehensive overview on this subject and examines the theoretical underpinnings of book conservation.
