Abstract | Examines the way in which studying history contributes to intellectual development. Identifies five mental attributes it enhances: perspective--gained from placing people, events, institutions against larger background; encounter--confronting great ideas, personalities, etc.; relativism in a pluralistic world--developed from immersion in other cultures and times; analytical habit of mind--from examining differing viewpoints; and skeptical habit of mind--requiring data before decision making.
