A collection of previously published papers, original texts based on lectures delivered by the author and several pieces written solely for this publication. Each analyses one of the core notions that shape the traditional conservation discourse (minimal intervention, artist’s intent etc.). These reflections provide a deeper understanding of this fascinating activity, an understanding that may perhaps foster a more open, efficient and future-proof approach to cultural heritage conservation.

- By (author) Salvador Muñoz Viñas
"As the cultural heritage sector is broadening, the identity of the conservation profession is evolving. Munoz Vinas views this development as an opportunity to impact the nature of its direction. I consider this publication the most important on the ethics of conservation since 2005, when the author published Contemporary Theory of Conservation.'"
