The book is an interesting experiment focusing on the way that archaeology and the various arts have cross-pollinated each other. 19 essays from different authors all over the world cover the ways archaeology has been integral to writing fiction and plays, movies, painting, music, sculpture, indigenous peoples arts, and the Internet, as well as public education. A CD is included with images and short movies. The book/CD set is potentially useful as a text in the humanities and interdisciplinary studies, as well as the arts, writing, and perceptions of archaeology in the public arena.
