About the book >.>.> Making History Count introduces the main quantitative methods used in his-torical research. The emphasis is on intuitive understanding and application of the concepts, rather than formal statistics; no knowledge of mathematics beyond simple arithmetic is required. The techniques are illustrated by appli-cations in social, political, demographic, and economic history. Students will learn to read and evaluate the application of the quantitative methods used in many books and articles, and to assess the historical conclu-sions drawn from them. They will see how quantitative techniques can open up new aspects of an enquiry, and supplement and strengthen other methods of research. This textbook will also encourage students to recognize the bene-fits of using quantitative methods in their own research projects. Making History Count is written by two senior economic historians with considerable teaching experience on both sides of the Atlantic. It is designed for use as the basic text for taught undergraduate and graduat. Seller Inventory # Batch-FM531-VG-11552
