It includes the origins of the interest in conservation within the European context, and the development of the concepts from Antiquity and the Renaissance to the present day.

This book is based on archival research of original documents and the study of key restoration examples in countries that have influenced the international conservation movement. Accessible and of great interest to students and the general public it includes conservation trends in Europe, the USA, India, Iran and Japan.
