TONE, Andrea. Department of History and Classical Studies, McGill University.
Andrea Tone is one of the leading scholars of twentieth-century American history. Her scholarship ambitiously re-integrates power – the economic, political, medical, and legal -- into the study of social history. An impassioned advocate of public history, she successfully bridges disciplines and uses different media to present research findings in a manner that advances scholarship while reaching diverse audiences beyond the academy.
