"The Value of Things demonstrates that the collection and exchange of objects plays a vital role in our definition of cultural value. It argues that there is a powerful web of links between the department store and the museum, which will continue to reflect - and change - the status of the things we make. An investigation which touches on issues central to art, consumerism and design, The Value of Things asks important questions about our understanding of material culture."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
