Radiography of Cultural Material cover

Radiography can be an invaluable tool for the study of a diverse array of cultural materials including metals, ceramics, paper, paintings and human and animal remains. In this book, experts in the field bring to life their experiences with the different materials, describing the techniques that can be employed to discover the stories behind the objects.

This second edition, available in paperback for the first time, includes new case studies and images, as well as whole new sections on digital imaging, quality control and animal mummies.

"This book still addresses the particulars of working with a range of materials,including metals, ceramics, paper and paitings, plus dealing with archaeo-human and animal remains." -- Museum News, Jul-Aug 2006
