I don't know that the author intended it "exclusively" rather than personally and in direct reference to her experience as an historian. History taken seriously and systematically is a discipline ... when approached from a documentary or factual basis, occasionally a science. Practiced honestly, is a sovereign cure for Illusion. Thanks as always for your thoughts.
Thank you for your wise insights-just listened to Sam Harris and Simon Sebag Montefiore discuss the Temple Mount and Jerusalem in regard to Simon’s book, and the twisted ways of history, crisis, perception…. Humans…..sigh
