Reviews

'This book is a fundamental re-evaluation of the contemporary role of anthropology and social history in museums in the post-colonial era.' - Museums Journal

'Making Representations is a beautifully double-edged title. It expresses the activity of museums as they display and interpret cultures, but also voices the growing demands of the peoples represented to be involved in the way their culture is presented in museums.' - Gillian Crowther, Museums Journal

'The book is well presented and illustrated. This is a genuinely helpful contribution to museum thinking and should become a standard museum studies text.' - Gaynor Kavanagh, University of Leicester
