The Museum Time Machine. Putting Cultures on Display, 1988, 256 p. -

A provocative contribution to the current debate on museums, The Museum Time-Machine deals with recent public controversies, such as those over charges, sponsorship, and political interference, but its primary concern is with broader cultural and social questions. The debate is an international one, and this book contains contributions from France and Australia as well as Britain, with comparative material from the USA and Canada.
