About the Author
- Notes
- "Based on notes ... prepared for an undergraduate course titled 'Chemistry of the Environment and of Cultural Property' ... taught at the 'Valle Giulia' Faculty of Architecture, University of Rome 'La Sapienza, ' from 2001 to 2004. The lecture notes were published in 2002 by the Scuola di Specializzazione in Restauro dei Monumenti, which kindly allowed the use of the material for an English version. The English text is not truly a translation ... furthermore, several parts have been revised and some completely rewritten."
