HISTORICAL APPROACH

 

 

"The only justification for a historical treatment is when you must explain how things got to be so messed up."

 

                                                                    - Gary Bradshaw

 

Many textbooks introduce the topic through history. Guess why? There is a compelling need to explain how things came to be so muddled and confused, and you won't understand the situation unless you appreciate the history.
