Museums have been active in shaping knowledge over the last six
hundred years. Yet what is their function within today's society?
At the present time, when funding is becoming increasingly scarce,
difficult questions are being asked about the justification of
museums. Museums and the Shaping of Knowledge presents a critical
survey of major changes in current assumptions about the nature of
museums. Through the examination of case studies, Eilean
Hooper-Greenhill reveals a variety of different roles for museums
in the production and shaping of knowledge. Today, museums are once
again organising their spaces and collections to present themselves
as environments for experimental and self-directed learning.
