Recenzii

"A readable and well-organized synthesis…. [this book] ought to be essential reading for anyone seeking the nearest approximation of a “global archival history” currently available in English"
- Eric C. Stoykovich, University of Maryland, US
"It reflects much of the latest scholarship on all periods of archival history from ancient Mesopotamia to the twentieth century; it covers an impressive range of topics in a very small space; and, as the first and only monograph of its kind in English, it fills a long-standing void in professional literature. If it succeeds in provoking new interest in its subject matter, or encouraging its readers to undertake further research, it will have served its purpose admirably."
- Geoffrey Yeo, University College, London, UK
"For anyone interested in the historical development of archival practice or in the variety of perspectives available through the lens of international or global comparisons, A History of Archival Practice is a welcome addition to the growing literature on archival history."
- Rand Jimerson, Western Washington University, US

"A History of Archival Practice, Margaret Procter, senior lecturer in record and archive studies at the University of Liverpool, UK, provides a beautifully rendered revision and translation of Delsalle’s chronicle of power and control for an anglophone audience."

-Christopher M. Laico, Columbia University, US
"...Margaret Procter’s translation of this text by Professor Paul Delsalle is very much to be welcomed....I think the book has great potential value and undoubtedly fills a big gap in the extant literature."
-Elizabeth Shepherd, University College London, UK
" The book is therefore ideally suited, and intended, as an overview work on the development of the archiv
