A BRIEF HISTORY OF ART THERAPY Randy M. Vick This history of art therapy focuses on the precursory and continuing trends that have shaped the theory and practice and the literature that reflects this development.

Thucydides book the History of the Peloponnesian War is a well written work of art. It is lacking a bit when it comes to historical accuracy but still has historical uses.

One way to see the different viewpoints historians may have

After reading the article “The Betrayal of History” I was surprise to know the role of textbooks. I never thought that our school textbooks would play a major role in learning history. Texas and California are the two major states‚ which participate in printing the books and made it all the worse. These two states sold 20% of total accounts. Most of the students hate reading history textbooks because they were boring along with the words going against religious rights and beliefs. However‚ Joy Hakim

The book "A history of women in America" overall I thought was a okay book. I like that the book told about women’s struggle and the situations they endured. Through those struggles they gave us a voice and major goals were accomplished. The women who spoke out and gave all women equal rights really made me feel and have a great pride in being a woman myself with the rights they fought for in present day America. The most interesting information I read in this book was how women basically did
