With contributions from prominenthistorians including Marilyn Lake, Tom Griffiths, Peter Stanley and AnnCurthoys, Australian History Nowoffers revealing and refreshing accounts of the ways Australian historians thinkabout the nation's past. Australian History Now is anengaging and often surprising introduction to the ways we understand and writeour history in academic, popular and school books, argue about it in the media,present it in museums and watch it on television. At its heart it shows thatthe way we remember our past reflects how we see ourselves in the present.
