Impeccably researched, this book analyzes Hagenbeck's innovations in creating live animal environments and performances and places them within a larger history of themed displays and virtual reality. Beautifully written, this book is an important addition to a growing literature on the history of exhibition." -Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett, author of Destination Culture: Tourism, Museums, and Display UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON PRESS Jan 2009 376pp £26.99 PB: 9780295988337 SPECIAL DISCOUNTED PRICE OF £19.00 to GERMAN-STUDIES Subscribers Postage and Packing £2.75 (PLEASE QUOTE REF NUMBER: CH060309GS for discount) To order a copy please contact Marston on 44(0)1235 465500 or email [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> or visit our website www.combinedacademic.co.uk <http://www.combinedacademic.co.uk> or http://www.combinedacademic.co.uk/catalogue.asp?ex=fitem&target=9780295988337&fmt=f <http://www.combinedacademic.co.uk/catalogue.asp?ex=fitem&target=9780295988337&fmt=f> where you can still receive your discount Find CAP on Twitter: http://twitter.com/CAP_Ltd Clare Cottrell Marketing Assistant Combined Academic Publishers 15a Lewin's Yard East Street Chesham Buckinghamshire HP5 1HQ Phone: ++44 (0)1494 588 050 Fax: ++44 (0)1494 581 602 Email: [log in to unmask]
