Carr once said that 鈥淭he study of history frees one from narrowness, from presentness and from arrogance鈥t conveys an awareness of alternatives.鈥

By taking the long view of causes, contexts and chronologies of past events, the well-trained student of history is able to analyze the breadth of human experience from multiple perspectives.
