This compilation of articles and interviews with leading scholars in the heritage movement is skilfully edited by Michelle Stefano, Peter Davis, and Gerard Corsane. The twenty-one entries include sixteen articles and five ‘Conversation Pieces’. These additional five entries are highly engaging interviews with heritage scholars from a range of disciplines who work with professional organisations in diverse geographic regions. As a whole, the entire compilation is a welcome addition to the literature on heritage due to its focus on the conservation of intangible cultural resources (ICH) within various political, economic, historic, and geographic contexts.  a1975-3586
