Abstract

In this critical review, I present a summary analysis of a Brazilian book with a theoretical reflection on Interpretation, which shows in a very refined way the philosophy, principles and techniques of this art of heritage communication and presentation. The book shows the USA intellectual tradition of Heritage Interpretation as a model for their implementation in Brazil.
