"The Postmodern History Reader" draws together in one collection some of the most interesting and influential writing--both for and against--on postmodernism and historiography. Drawing on books and articles from across the whole historiographical range, the impact of postmodernism on historical studies is described and exemplified in challenging and thought-provoking ways.

The book goes on to follow specific debates within the key journals which demonstrate how the whole field developed. The final section is on readings of the Holocaust. Selected material encompasses a range of areas including intellectual and social history, the holocaust debate, history of ideas and social and political theory. Each section starts with an introduction to the carefully defined debate.
