There are many stories we can tell about the past and we are not perhaps as free as we might imagine in our choice of which stories to tell or where those stories end. John Arnold s addition to Oxford s popular Very Short Introductions series is a stimulating essay about how people study and understand history. The book begins by inviting us to think about various questions provoked by our investigation of history and then explores the ways in which these questions have been answered in the past. Such key concepts as causation interpretation and periodization are introduced by way of concrete examples of how historians work thus giving the reader a sense of the excitement implicit in discovering the past–and ourselves. The aim throughout History: A Very Short Introduction is to discuss theories of history in a general pithy and accessible manner rather than delve into specific periods. This is a book that will appeal to all students and general readers with an interest in history or historiography. About the Series: Oxford s Very Short Introductions series offers concise and original introductions to a wide range of subjects–from Islam to Sociology Politics to Classics Literary Theory to History and Archaeology to the Bible. Not simply a textbook of definitions each volume in this series provides trenchant and provocative–yet always balanced and complete–discussions of the central issues in a given discipline or field. Every Very Short Introduction gives a readable evolution of the subject in question demonstrating how the subject has developed and how it has influenced society. Eventually the series will encompass every major academic discipline offering all students an accessible and abundant reference library. Whatever the area of study that one deems important or appealing whatever the topic that fascinates the general reader the Very Short Introductions series has a handy and affordable guide that will likely prove indispensable.
