Review: Lies My Teacher Told Me : This book is a must read for anyone that is tired of reading history as written by the "victor" as most history is. Of course there's the victors side, however the vanquished side and the truth or an unbiased side are also angles of history which we would do well to know about. Here one gets an eyefull of what the "others" side of the story is. With the victor writing everyting it's all so biased, how can anyone make an intelligent decision on what happened or what and how to improve culture and government if we're not even fully aware of what really went on? Even though this book has been around for quite a while it seems to be a lot more up date then all the existing history books that are so concerned with making things look good, whitewashing things ad infinitum.
