4-0 out of 5 stars Influential Postmodern, Christian Historiography
This work is one from which a great many specialists from different fields will draw much insight from.Though ostensibly a work on historiography, this meta-topic is explore through the various alleyways of other disciplines such as politics, theology, history of religions, ethnology and psychoanalysis.5-0 out of 5 stars Excellent for those interested in historiography and theory
Along with French intellectual giants such as Lacan, Foucault, Derrida and Levinas, stands Michel de Certeau. Despite being far less kown than these other figures of post-structuralist thought, it has been said that his thought and range of interests exceeded all of them (He studied and taught history, anthropology, sociology, psychoanalysis, theology, literature and French). He deserves to be better well-known in the English speaking world, and will undoubtedly become so, now that his major works have been translated and are available.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Any student of Toynbee should read
I confess I only read D. C. Somervell's abridgment of Arnold Toynbee's first six volumes A Study of History, so I cannot claim to be a student of his work, but I was impressed mightily by that reading.This biography of Toynbee by the eminent historian William H. McNeill is of consistent interest and does not fail to relate Toynbee's troubled personal life as well as explore his eminent historical writing life.After reading this bio I concluded that Toynbee's theories and prophecies have not proved overly valid.E.g., he feared the U.S. more than Soviet Russia, and that is a novel and unspportable fear to me, naturally.Toynbee, along with most great thinkers, did not foresee the Soviet collapse.I think an interesting work would be an exploration of the why so many people looked on Communism as the wave of the future, even including Whittaker Chambers.Does anyone know of a good book exploring that phenomenon? ...

4-0 out of 5 stars The Voice of the Past
In his book, "The Voice of the Past: Oral History," Paul Thompson successfully explores all aspects of oral history - from a historiographical journey that analyzes oral history through the ages to advice on designing projects, interviewing techniques, organizing information, and interpretation. According to the author, “The book is, first of all, an introduction to the use of oral sources by the historian. But the very use of these sources raises fundamental issues, and I have decided to take these at the beginning, moving step by step towards the more practical later chapters.” (Thompson, v) Throughout the text, Thompson reminds the reader of the merits of oral history and how it compares with the modern historians more traditional documentary sources. In addition, the updated edition looks at new technology, including video and multimedia, and the international and interdisciplinary aspects of the oral history movement. The result is an original and authoritative guide on the methods and meaning of oral history.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great book, but where's the index?
I loved this book, it is helpful to my collecting and my selling.It has wonderful pictures, and I love the section on '60's makers and just the way it is arranged in general is helpful and makes for fascinating reading.The only thing I would like to see with this book is a name index; this would make it so much more helpful as a reference.I do highly recommend it though, as a reference or just as a coffee table book.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Book that Changed my Life.
Wow, what a book!!Having been previously lightly infected by the `Aloha Shirt' bug, after having read this beautiful book, I became incurably and terminally struck down.Profusely illustrated from the collections of many well-known and extremely lucky collectors, this book has become my bedside bible.The research is also first-class, following the development of the Aloha shirt from a fun thing, to a full-blown industry.I now live and breath THE shirt.Buy this book and like me, change your life.

5-0 out of 5 stars If everyone wore aloha shirts, there'd be no war...
If Hawaii or the aloha shirt has ever gladdened your heart, you'll want to own THE ALOHA SHIRT. Dale Hope conveys the TRUE SPIRIT (colorful, soft, peaceful, flowing) of the Hawaiian Islands by presenting both the fascinating history of the aloha shirt and 500 or so beautiful illustrations. These illustrations are so varied and exquisite that you'll get high just by perusing them. They also help you see how the aloha shirt can be an art form in and of itself. Hopefully, this book will inspire people to wear their aloha shirts more often -- not just when they visit Hawaii -- and to buy the new ones that are being created by the best artist designers. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars inspiring biography
This book is a biography of the British historian Christopher Dawson, written by his daughter Christina. Dawson was an incredible scholar, and his writings are almost prophetic: some of his essays on world history arecurrent today. His biography describes a complex man, a mystical experiencethat brought him to the Catholic Church, a life in the pursuit of knowledgethat was never easy. He held an endowed chair at Harvard's Divinity School.I would reccomend this book for graduate students in the humanities, it canbe very inspiring for any scholar-to-be. ... Read more
