Study Here
History is about change. Studying the past reveals the continuing, fundamental changeability of our world, and of the many ways we perceive, adapt to, and often shape change.听 Studying the past thus lets us explore how and why things developed as they did; it also helps us see the present differently, and imagine different futures.
History also reveals an exhilarating variety of social worlds 鈥� many of them radically, exotically different from our own, even as they are fully comprehensible as human.
