DESCRIPTION:
"An essential guide to
present practice and policy concerning issues in heritage management, Heritage
Interpretation draws on the accumulated expertise and international reputation
for excellence of the UK heritage industry to describe and analyze best
practice in heritage interpretation.
The contributors, all responsible
for developing best practices, come from a range of heritage organizations
including English Heritage, The National Trust, Historic Scotland, CADW and
National Parks. They draw on examples from throughout the UK, from public art
and twentieth-century military remains, to cathedrals and urban heritage, and
discuss the range of interpretive options available and how they can be
appropriately tailored to specific places and audiences.
Providing practical guidance on interpretive techniques, the book
provides insights into the philosophies and thinking that underpins their
adoption in particular contexts."
