Scientific Methods and Cultural Heritage: An introduction to the application of materials science to archaeometry and conservation science by Gilberto Artioli (Hardcover, 2010)
The book is intended as an entry-level introduction to the methods and rationales of scientific investigation of cultural heritage materials, with emphasis placed on the analytical strategies, modes of operation, and resulting information rather than on technicalities. The extensive and updated reference list should be a useful starting point for further reading. Students and researchers from humanities approaching scientific investigation should find it useful, as well as scientists applying familiar techniques and methods to unfamiliar problems related to cultural heritage.
