A Companion to the Study of History by Michael Stanford

This book guides students through all the central historical concepts, theories, methods and problems confronting those engaged in the serious study of history.
"With Michael Stanford as a guide, the journey through history becomes lively and informativeCheerful, accessible, wise, witty, and philosophically grounded, his book engagingly connects history as lived experience and as critical reconstruction of the past. Both professional historians and students of history will learn much from Stanford's lucid common sense." Charles Tilly, New School for Social Research, New York
Michael Stanford was until 1983 Senior Lecturer in History at the University of the West of England and holds degrees in philosophy and history. He now co-edits the philosophy journal Cogito, and writes articles and reviews on both history and philosophy.
