Book synopsis

Ten years ago when this book was first published it was called "Education's Great Amnesia: Reconsidering the Humanities from Petrarch to Freud". It is being reissued now with a different title for a new generation of readers who cannot have forgotten what they never knew. What are the humanities? Can we agree on a core curriculum of humanistic studies? Robert Proctor answers these questions in a provocative, readable book.
