Summary:

"Education, in its broadest sense, is central to the role of all museums. It encourages a balance between the care of collections and the needs of the public the museums serve. This book recognises that role and, by drawing on examples from around the world, provides a wealth of ideas that will empower and inspire." --Book Jacket.
