Peter Stearns

In the course we have been hearing a lot about a man named Peter Stearns (pictured above). We have read sections from his book on gender roles, he wrote the "Why Study History Article" that we read at the beginning of the year, and he is one of the authors of our "Documents In World History" books. I am sure I am not alone in wondering

"Who is this guy?"

I decided to find out. Follow this link to the wikipedia article on Peter Stearns. This was unfortunately the best source I could find, even considering its potential unreliability.
