DESCRIPTION
History is the study of the past, particularly the written record of the human race, but more generally including scientific and archaeological discoveries about the past. Recently, there has been an increased interest in orai histories and traditions, passed down from generatiƶn to eneration verbally. Since historians are simultaneously observers of and participants in the historical! process, the historical worksheet produce are written from the perspective of their own time and sometimes with due concern for possible lessons for their own future. In the words of Benedetto Croce, "All history is contemporary history". Many historians are employed at universities and other facilities for post-secondary education. In addition, it is common, although not required, for many historians to have a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in their chosen areas of study. The Books (in three volumes) contain the life and work of World Great Historians.
