This book traces the development of historiography from the days of Herodotus to those of postmodernism. It covers the ancient, medieval and the modern aspects of the subject and offers easy comprehension, clear and precise guidance and immediate utility. The author provides a balanced view of competing ideas and leads the reader into the vast arena of the subject. Two thousand five hundred years of historiography, including Indian historiography and the poststructuralist critique of history, constitutes this clear, analytical work.

E Sreedharan is both a teacher and a lover of history. He is currently working on A Manual of Historical Research Methodology.
Professor E Sreedharan, former Reader, Department of History, Kerala University passed away (on 2 August 2020) at his residence at Indira Nagar, Peroorkada, near Trivandrum.
