Reviews

Everywhere archaeology is now part of the planning process and dealing with archaeological resources is one of the conditions to be managed in projects. This book is a successful attempt to provide guidance for project managers from around the world on how to deal with the risks and potential benefits of archaeology. Legal systems vary in different countries, but project development is similar everywhere and Stapp and Longenecker provide illuminating case studies and comparative overviews. Willem J.H. Willems, Dean of the Faculty of Archaeology, Leiden University; former State Archaeologist of The Netherlands.
