20 reviews for In Defence of History: Marxism and the Postmodern Agenda

  1. Saif Akhlaq

    I appreciated the author’s passion, but the book felt somewhat repetitive. Worth a read if you are deeply interested.

  2. Vishal

    I love history. This book was alright. I learned a couple of things. Not my favorite read though

  3. Jitender Dadarwal

    A solid academic work, but not for casual readers. The arguments are well-developed and supported with evidence.

  4. Chirag S

    Jal’s is a great author that explains Marxism very well in this book! I loved it.

  5. Mohamed Rameez

    Important but not a page turner. It is difficult to work through sometimes.

  6. Rakesh Kumar Sharma

    A dense read. I found it tough to get through. I am not a fan of reading history books in general though.

  7. Supreet Suman

    Amazing, very good. Will read again. Thanks!

  8. Prachi Manoj Ekhar

    Pretty good. The writing is hard to read sometimes though. Overall it is an okay book.

  9. Ansh Arora

    I am obsessed with history! I can’t believe I have not read this book sooner

  10. Aahana Moral

    A bit too academic for my taste. Some fascinating ideas, but hard to follow if you aren’t already familiar with the topic.

  11. Praveen B

    I found the arguments compelling, but the writing style is a bit dense. Overall, a valuable contribution.

  12. Devansh Agrawal

    Good points but gets bogged down in jargon at times. I agree with the core argument but struggled to finish it.

  13. Shruti Choudhary

    Important contribution to the debate! I appreciated the rigorous analysis, though it can be dry at points.

  14. Nadeem Nahas

    Challenging postmodernism! A must-read for anyone interested in historical theory. Some parts felt a bit repetitive.

  15. Yashowindra Singh Jamwal

    A great topic, that I enjoyed reading about. The book felt short. Could add more

  16. Ritik Saini

    An interesting perspective, but the author’s tone can be a bit dismissive. Still, some valuable insights within.

  17. Aslam M U

    Great! If you are wanting to understand histroical analysis, this book has your back.

  18. Suryansh Gupta

    A necessary book! This addresses critical issues in historical theory. It could be more concise, however.

  19. Aditi Jiwani

    Jal provides a solid defense of historical analysis. It is very convincing.

  20. Khushboo Agarwal

    A thought-provoking read, but dense. Jal makes a strong case, but it could be more accessible. Still worth the effort though.
