Chapter 10 | History: Understanding Causality, Paths, and Evolution Across Time

History is not a list of dates. It is a lens for causality, path dependence, institutional evolution, and human choice over time.

Core idea: Historical thinking helps people see that present reality is produced by layered causes and accumulated paths.

How to read it: treat the chapter as a working frame. Identify the situation it describes, the mistake it warns against, and the standard it asks you to build into your own system.

Static practice: Trace one current problem backward through three earlier causes or turning points.
