The book offers some starting points for working together and sharing collections. It provides information about the history of collecting and suggests different ways to approach the collections and collecting related activities.
It proposes that museums should rather be encouraged to build collection strategies of the 21st century than repeating the old pattern that is based on the idea of eternal growth.
The book also looks into the value building process of museum objects and discusses some principles that determine the economic value of art and antiquities.
