How does archaeology relate to modern society? How is the value of a site
assessed, and what are the practical and theoretical problems facing the
management of our cultural heritage? These are just a few of the important
issues addressed in Managing Archaeology, edited by Malcolm A. Cooper and
colleagues (Routledge, £40, ISBN 0 415 10674 5). In many ways, this book
is a character study for the future of British archaeology as it seeks to define
its role for the coming millennium.
