Excerpt from The Science of History
I have throughout endeavoured to keep on strictly historical ground, and to describe the different social, political and religious phenomena with the impartiality of an unbiassed observer. I should have been guilty of gross' neglect had I not attempted, step by step, to trace, in connection with Historiography, the causes 'of which the historical phenomena were the effects.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book brings a fresh perspective on studying history by treating it as a science, an approach the author argues is both possible and necessary for a deeper understanding of the human experience. The book lays the groundwork for this approach by providing an in-depth look at the nature of history, the forces that drive it, and the methods that can be used to write it. The author examines the different ways in which history has been interpreted and written through the ages, from ancient chronicles to modern historiography. The book is full of insights and ideas that will appeal to anyone interested in history and its role in shaping the world we live in. The author concludes by stressing that studying history is not mere memorization of dates and events, but learning from the past to better understand the present and future.
