Incorporating theorized readings of new media, and outside perspectives, Ross Parry emphasizes concepts, trends and debates throughout the field as the area of new media grows and expands within the study of museums.

Recenzje

“Museums in a Digital Age is thus a timely consideration of the role of the digital in the entire spectrum of museum activities…The…volume is…something much more attuned to the digital age which is its basis – a highly diverse, even eclectic, collection of papers broadly centred around the subject of the work.” – Historic Environment
