Serrell offers practical information and meaningful advice from the perspective of a museum professional -- including issues related to presenting compelling information for the public in a culture of other museum staff who want to share *everything* they know in the most accurate (i.e., technical) manner possible and those who want to present exhibits in the most whiz-bang way imaginable. This volume should be required reading for museum curators and exhibit designers, not just for those of us charged with text.
Great update of a superb resource. If you write labels for museums, aquariums or zoos, this is a must-have reference. If you appreciate and enjoy reading exhibit labels, you'll find this book fascinating. It gives you insiders' views of what it takes to make museum objects of interest more so.
Bought this book for a class. It's easy to read for a textbook and informative.
