Summary Public history is a large and complex field, with boundaries, methods, and subjects that are hotly debated, and 'The Oxford Handbook of Public History' reflects these complexities. This book defines public history as a transnational field, and public history work as analytical and active: practical work informed by thoughtful reflection. The book locates public history as a professional practice within an intellectual framework that is increasingly democratic, technological, and transnational.
