Bücher von Tony (The Open University Bennett

On its publication in 1999, Accounting for Tastes was the most systematic and substantial study of Australian cultural tastes, preferences and activities ever. It is a book that makes a substantial contribution to the empirical and policy-oriented social inquiry into questions of cultural practices and preferences.

In a series of richly detailed studies from Britain, Australia and North America, Bennett investigates how 19th and 20th century museums, fairs and exhibitions have organised their collections and their visitors.
