Looking to the future, caring for the past. Preventive archaelogy in theory and practice

LOOKING TO THE FUTURE, CARING FOR THE PAST is a collection of papers presented at the 2013 and 2014 Summer Schools Preventive Archaeology: evaluating sites and landscapes coordinated within the Erasmus Intensive Programme by the Department of History and Cultures of the University of Bologna. Bringing together the experience of great experts and young researchers from different countries, the book paints an informed picture on Preventative Archaeology, focusing on the role of non-invasive techniques in evaluating the nature and potential of archaeological deposits prior to potentially damaging changes or development, and so properly informing the planning process and individual project designs.
