Product Review
Reviews of the first edition: 'It is without question a must for people interested in the art of glass conservation' Stained Glass Quarterly 'this book provides some extremely useful information and will be of great assistance to conservators who wish to understand the complexities of the nature of glass corrosion and the various treatments available.' Studies in Conservation ' this book is long overdue, but worth the wait an invaluable addition to the restorer's and conservator's libraries'. Professional Stained Glass ' a definitive text a delightful book to possess'. Glass Technology "Without question, the author offers a useful and thorough reference on glass as a material, its historical development, and the mechanisms of deterioration and preservationSandra Davison has again provided the field of conservation with a thorough and up-to-date textbook. The book is more devoted to glass objects than the previous version, and topics have been expanded to reflect the significant developments in the field of glass conservation. The sections on architectural glass have been removed but replaced with useful information on chandeliers, installations, and reverse paintings on glassSandra Davison is an enthusiastic, extremely talented glass conservator who enjoys sharing her knowledge and hands-on skills widely. She has lectured, taught courses, and given demonstrations of techniques throughout the world, and she actively continues to improve our understanding and capabilities in the conservation of glass. The drawings that she provides in the book are lessons in themselves. The field of glass conservation is fortunate to have her commitment and authoritative expertise Conservation and Restoration of Glass is a valuable resource for students, conservators, restorers, and anyone else who is interested in the complex nature and behaviour of glass. The additions and improvements to the previous edition add significantly to all its original strengths." - Journal of the American Institute for Conservation, Fall/Winter 2004
