In ""The Historian's Conscience"", Macintyre and thirteen other
Australian historians put history and the history profession under
the microscope. Eminent contributors include Alan Atkinson, Graeme
Davison, Greg Dening, John Hirst, Beverley Kingston, Marilyn Lake,
and Iain McCalman. They not only ask but answer the hard questions
about writing and researching history. How do historians choose
their histories? What sort of emotional investment do they make in
their subjects, and how do they control their sympathies? How do
they deal with unpalatable discoveries? To whom are historians
responsible? And for whom are they entitled to speak?
Intellectually provocative, often personally revealing, always
engaged, ""The Historian's Conscience"" is a 'must read'.
