Book Description | Heritage is all around us, not just in monuments and old buildings, but in places that matter, the countryside and in collections and stories. It touches all of us. How do we decide what to preserve? How do we make the case for heritage when there are so many other priorities? Values in Heritage Practice is designed to make the case for heritage. It is the first ever action learning book about heritage. Eighty different activities and games encompass the basics of heritage management. Although designed to `train the trainers,' the activities in the book are relevant to any group involved in caring for heritage |
Editorial Review | "As a facilitator working in the heritage sector, this book felt as though it was written for me. Once published it will quickly become my manual and should quickly become a core text for anyone working with heritage, in whatever capacity, at whatever level. This book is a tour de force, taking the reader on a journey into the theory and practice of valuing heritage; it represents for the facilitator a box of delights or a pic `n' mix of games for the heritage manager, designator, funder, fundraiser, educator, regulator, policy-maker to use in their everyday work." Jo Robertson, Built Environment Forum Scotland |
