解説

Using Computers in History is designed to introduce students to historical computing through practical workshop exercise. Using examples such as the performance of the American and German economies in the 1930s, the working-class pattern of nineteenth-century emigration and the cotton industry, the authors explain and illustrate the range of computing possibilities available to the contemporary historian.
Using Computers in History:
* raises awareness of the use of the computer as an important tool for the historian
* includes spreadsheet exercises based around a range of historical data sets
* explores the use of databases and shows how to construct them
*prompts students to apply the skills they have learnt to a number of examples.

This new edition is updated throughout to take into consideration the latest technological developments, and includes a new chapter on using the Internet and its use as a tool for studying, researching and teaching history. Also included is an accessible introduction to quantitative methods.
