Description
Building on the first edition, this new edition of Conservation Science incorporates analytical techniques and data processing methods that have emerged in the past decade. It presents these techniques alongside notable case studies for each class of material.
The textbook covers all common heritage materials, from natural substances like wood and stone to modern plastics, detailing up-to-date analysis techniques for each. Contributions by scientists working in the museum and heritage sector make it a valuable resource for students, conservators, and scientists involved in conservation.
