Recenzii

'Their book should be compulsory reading for anyone wanting to take part in the current discussion about history teaching and its future in our schools. At a single stroke, this book puts the whole debate onto a more sophisticated and grown-up level.'
- The Independent
'They make a strong, persuasive case and it's possible that history may one day be complusory to 16 as part of a Baccalaureate style curriculum.'
- BBC History Magazine, David Nicholls, Emeritus Professor of History, Manchester Metropolitan University
