Barzun and Graff thoroughly cover every aspect of research, from the selection of a topic through the gathering, analysis, writing, revision, and publication of findings presenting the process not as a set of rules but through actual cases that put the subtleties of research in a useful context. Part One covers the principles and methods of research; Part Two covers writing, speaking, and getting one's work published. A useful text in many respects for the graduate student. The first chapter was especially insightful and even inspiring in its explanation of how and why we study history.
It indirectly provides some particularly zesty counters for addressing and redirecting those who cling to the particularly pesky mantra of “those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it,” which has always bothered me, but I’ve never before had the verbal ammunition to overcome. Perhaps the greatest flaw of this work is t A useful text in many respects for the graduate student. The first chapter was especially insightful and even inspiring in its explanation of how and why we study history. It indirectly provides some particularly zesty counters for addressing and redirecting those who cling to the particularly pesky mantra of “those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it,” which has always bothered me, but I’ve never before had the verbal ammunition to overcome. Perhaps the greatest flaw of this work is that it is now quite dated having been written in 1992. My professors did not specify an edition, and this is the one I purchased not realizing that there is a 6th ed., if not a 7th (if not, there probably will be soon). What a difference two decades makes in the technology sector.
Card catalogues (p.48) are now on the extinct species list, and there are no longer conversations needed of weighing the pros and cons between deciding whether to write by hand, typewriter, or the 'word processor' (p.348-363). The foreboding tone of the conversation regarding the pros and cons of the 'so called 'laptop' (p.24) had me laughing aloud. To be fair, I was unaware that laptops existed in 1992, so surely this book was at the cutting edge at the time of publication. Also long since resolved, is the problem of what to do with frail and aging materials as the great digitization projects have rendered this crisis moot. Surely too, will future editions of this work dispense with large portions of Chapter 4 'Finding the Facts', as Google and internal library search systems have thankfully replaced the cumbersome and time consuming days of hunting through various indexes in order to find the desired subject matter. Technology aside, the weakest section in this work is Chapter 10 ' Plain Words.'
