'Using multiple lenses, Teaching History in Higher Education helps history teachers see the discipline's epistemological, cognitive, and ethical characteristics. Working with extensive historiographic, philosophic, psychological, and educational scholarship, Edward Ross Dickinson illuminates History's enduring debates and unique features. Situating history education in this larger context makes the book's pedagogical guidance more valuable for postsecondary teachers.' Bob Bain, University of Michigan

'Dickinson has penned a love-letter to History. It is passionate, playful, personal, and coy. It is also a workman-like 'how to', which will be incredibly useful to people who teach history as well as to their students. Teaching History in Higher Education is a highly original text, displaying great erudition and wit.' Joanna Bourke, Birkbeck, University of London

'Teaching History in Higher Education is a very wise and useful introduction to the teaching of history, one that new and old teachers will find helpful and challenging. Edward Ross Dickinson demonstrates that historians need to teach students the fundamental assumptions and practices of the discipline, help them understand how historians think and at the same time push them to think like a historian.' Gaines M. Foster, Louisiana State University
