What underlying philosophy and mission should museums pursue in the
first half of the twenty-first century? In Museum Philosophy,
twenty-four authors use the lenses of a variety of disciplines to
answer this essential question. Museum professionals offer their
answers alongside philosophers, historians, political scientists,
educators, sociologists, and others in a wide-ranging exploration
of institutions from art museums to zoos. Hugh Genoway's book
offers philosophical and ethical guidelines, describes the ways
specific institutions illustrate different philosophies, examines
major divisions in the museum community, and explores outreach and
engagement between the museum and its larger community. Both
established museum professionals and students of museum studies
will benefit from this insightful look into the foundations and
future of their field.
