Today's book review is of Margaret MacMillan’s book, “The Uses and Abuses of History.” It argues that while history can help us understand ourselves and the world, it is often used to promote nationalistic agendas, justify past wrongs, and create simplistic narratives that ignore complex realities. MacMillan explores how people often selectively use history to validate their present actions and beliefs, often at the expense of understanding and truth. She emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and skepticism when considering historical interpretations and argues that we must be cautious of those who claim to have discovered the definitive historical truth.
