%X How is history used? What are the ways history is used? In this book review, Nihat Kahveci analyzes how Bernard Lewis¡¯s History: Remembered, Recovered, Invented seeks the answers to these important questions. Lewis states in the preface that the historian sometimes ¡°needs to leave his period, his area, and his topic, and take a boarder look at the nature of his vocation and discipline¡±. The book is such reflection on nature of historical knowledge and discipline of history. Organizing different examples of historical events, the book takes a broad look at the discipline of history.
