| Synopsis: |
"Get Set for History" offers students a comprehensive overview of what studying History at degree level entails and gives guidance on how to cope with the demands that will be made on them. It begins by examining the nature of history and looking at the diverse approaches to history that students will encounter in their studies. It then goes on to explore ways in which historians have approached key issues and to highlight the importance of the study of history to an understanding of a wide range of situations. The book provides students with a clear and accessible guide to the main branches of history - economic and social; political and diplomatic; local and regional; intellectual; cultural and gender - in relation to medieval, modern and contemporary periods, and introduces the reader to ways of studying history at university and career opportunities thereafter. The book includes a Glossary of key terms and further reading. |
