Archaeology, like all scientific disciplines, is accumulating an
ever-increasing volume of data which the researcher must be able to
retrieve and use in formulating and testing theories of
interpretation. There are many practical questions of how
information can best be recorded, stored and disseminated, but
behind these lie fundamental intellectual questions. It is to the
latter that Jean-Claude Gardin addresses this book. The advent of
data banks, computers, micro-publishing, etc. will not in itself
improve the access of the researcher to information of real value
unless some consensus can be reached on the way the information is
selected and presented and the reasoning processes that these
different modes of presentation embody. Jean-Claude Gardin sees
this as a long-term goal, the book as one step on the way to its
achievement.
