Museum Culture: Memory, Meaning, and the Modern Mind (Edition1)

This book by Dr. Priyanka Joshi explores the deeper purpose and practice of museums-not as static halls of the past, but as active spaces of learning, dialogue, and cultural care. Drawing on research and thoughtful reflection, she takes readers behind the scenes to reveal how museums curate stories, engage communities, and preserve heritage. Written in an accessible, human style, the book is for students, educators, and curious minds alike. It reminds us that preserving culture is a shared responsibility, and that museums are vital, living institutions that help us connect with our past and imagine a more inclusive future.
