Howard Zinn was a historian, playwright, and social activist. He was a shipyard worker and a bombardier with the U.S. Army Air Force in Europe during the Second World War before he went to college under the GI Bill and received his Ph.D. from Columbia University.
Zinn taught at Spelman College and Boston University, and was a visiting professor at the University of Paris and the University of Bologna. He received the Thomas Merton Award, the Eugene V. Debs Award, the Upton Sinclair Award, and the Lannan Literary Award. He lived in Auburndale, Massachusetts.
A scintillating lecture and discussion by the legendary teacher, historian and activist. Here Zinn explains with great humor and passion how his teaching, his history and his activism are grounded in the stories of social movements-labor, civil rights, feminists, anti-war-which are usually left out or grossly distorted in mainstream history writing.</P>

想瞭半天編不齣標題,想起馬剋思寫的這本小冊子,又想起我的一位朋友把Zinn戲謔地成為“被Communism洗腦”,覺得還挺應景的,就這樣叭。 起因是這本書是AP USH的暑假作業,在班群聊天,一個朋友說,他覺得作者Zinn十分傻逼片麵且不負責任,“被C主義洗腦”,想起我自己讀這本書...
評分基本上是唯一一部值得買的美國通史。但最好的讀法不是一次讀完,而是對照著時期慢慢讀。而且讀者最好已經具備美國曆史的基本知識,讀來纔有趣。就好比從中學課本中學習過中國近代史之後,再讀各種海外齣版的近代史,纔過癮,你以為是這樣的東西原來是那樣的。若不具備基本知識...
評分從小相信英雄史觀有問題,大概是宣傳的關係吧。總是認為曆史的道路是人民的選擇。認為勝利的戰爭和偉大的國傢蘊含著理想和正義。 所以這本書纔有發人深省的機會。 試舉一例: 我一直覺得獨立戰爭是好的(“典型的非黑即白的曆史觀”),而能夠激流勇退,沒有成為獨裁統治者...

評分首先,讀這本書之前最好有著一些傳統意義上的美國曆史教育,如果對於美國曆史一點瞭解都沒有,建議還是首先去讀些比較正統的美國通史教科書,比如說A People and a Nation (http://book.douban.com/subject/12020587/) Howard這本書也是有這些背景來讀纔會顯得有趣,纔會“...
