Reviews

 From the reviews "This is a landmark book for the conservation profession written by wood scientists who understand the need to establish a current, annotated, and well-referenced work on the research and publications related to wood conservation. It establishes a new level of professional scholarship on the subject of wood conservation by bringing together an extraordinary amount of information, research, and references in one volume. ...Any conservation scientist, conservator, or student involved in the preservation of wooden cultural material will want to have access to this publication. The Conservation of Wood Artifacts should be a core publication for any training program that includes the subject in its curriculum. ...The conservation community is well served by this example of effective organization and the application of rigorous standards in presenting concepts supported by the extant literature." (Journal of the American Institute for Conservation, Summer 2002, Volume, Number 2)
