We all have a stake in the past and in its tangible preservation, and we trust professionals to preserve our cultural heritage for the future. However, restoration in all its forms is entangled in many contemporary theoretical debates and problems.

This collection of essays by distinguished scholars explores the range, scope and sheer verve of Lawrence's comic writing.

This set of differences is often called a diff or patch. For files that are identical, diff normally produces no output; for binary (non-text) files, diff...
