If some of these have already been nominated, please forgive.
Interestingly, the publisher of each is Routledge.  This house
announces a "new series," "Collecting Cultures." Apparently the
authors & editors see this in the context of "cultural
history": but then are not museums both the High Priests of
cultural history as well as being a part of it?  The Spring '95
catalogue lists:

        Pearce, Susan.  On Collecting: An Investigation into
                Collecting in the European Tradition. 1995 ISBN
                0 415 07560 2  US$49.95  CAN$67.95

        Belk, Russell.  Collecting in a Consumer Society. 1995
                ISBN 0 415 10534 X  US$39.95  CAN$53.95

This is the same publisher who does another series, "Heritage:
Care-Preservation-Management" with

                Edson, Gary. International Directory of Museum
                Training. 1995 ISBN 0 415 12257 0  US$49.95
                CAN$67.95

                Glaser, Jane and Artemis Zenetou. Museums: A
                Place to Work. Planning Museum Careers.  1995.
                ISBN 0 415 12256 2:#C0478 US$75.00  CAN$100.95
                (Pap. ISBN 0 415 12724 6:#C0599 US$25.00
                CAN$33.95)

und zo Wiete

BTW: I have no financial connection with the publisher
Routledge, nor any connection with any of the authors.
