For those who missed its publication over the summer: one of Italy's leading journalists - Francesco Erbani - in the culture sector has just written a book called: 'Pompei, Italia', which attempts to look behind the headlines of recent years to understand the problems related to Pompeii's management and conservation. In doing so, Erbani describes Pompeii within the larger context of Italy's public administration and problems on a national scale - Pompeii becomes a symbol of Italy's cultural heritage in general and the state of the nation.
