Originally published in 1972, this book is a systematic analysis of
the objectives and methods of history teaching. The book considers
the criticisms of the 1960s and 70s of history as a subject and the
pressures for its replacement in the school curriculum. It examines
the complex psychological background of learning history and
suggests that historical understanding makes an important
contribution to cognitive growth. It also stresses the important
part played by historical material in the emotional and imaginative
life of the child. Concluding with a discussion of practical
classroom methods, the author proposes objectives and
characteristic concepts of the subject which may be embodied in all
levels of teaching.
