The relationship between archaeology and conservation has long been complex and, at times, challenging. Archaeologists are often seen as interested principally in excavation and research, while conservators are concerned mainly with stabilization and the prevention of deterioration. Yet it is often initial conservation in the field that determines the long-term survival and intelligibility of both moveable artifacts and fixed architectural features. This user-friendly guide to conservation practices on archaeological excavations covers both structures and artifacts, starting from the moment when they are uncovered. Individual chapters discuss excavation and conservation, environmental and soil issues, deterioration, identification and condition assessment, detachment and removal, initial cleaning, coverings and shelters, packing, and documentation. There are also eight appendixes. Geared primarily for professionals engaged in the physical practice of excavation, this book will also interest archaeologists, archaeological conservators, site managers, conservation scientists, museum curators, and students of archaeology and conservation.

A atuação profissional de pedagogos em contextos não escolares ainda é tema exíguo em pesquisas acadêmicas, embora esse campo profissional seja uma realidade pulsante em diferentes espaços sociais. A grande contribuição da obra – estruturada a partir de tese de doutorado em educação – é apresentar os resultados do diálogo estabelecido com pedagogos e pedagogas que desenvolvem o seu trabalho em ambientes extrínsecos à escola. A partir das diferentes práxis e das áreas temáticas observadas, vislumbramos a infinidade de possibilidades laborais que se apresentam para os egressos do curso de Pedagogia além da docência na educação básica. O currículo do curso de Pedagogia, inclusive, requer abertura para a abordagem do trabalho pedagógico não escolar de forma consistente. Assim, entendemos que a perspectiva de Pedagogia enquanto campo científico é o caminho capaz de favorecer uma formação ampliada no curso de Pedagogia que permita, por sua vez, o trânsito pedagógico do egresso em diferentes espaços educativos presentes na sociedade.
