Reviews
"An experienced quartet of editors has brought complementary ranges of expertise to a volume that fully maintains the high standards of a series, Blackwell Philosophy Guides, that is proving to be both invaluable to students and a repository of the best in contemporary philosophical thinking. The twenty dual-authored contributions, like the editors' introduction, confirm the conviction - Plato's, Nietzsche's, Dewey's - that not only is authentic philosophy educative but that an authentic education engages the philosophical imagination." David E. Cooper, University of Durham "This volume contains many excellent essays that between them capture in an authoritative - and lucid - way the intellectual diversity of the contemporary field of philosophy of education. Clearly it should have a place in the professional library of all serious students of the field." D.C. Phillips, Stanford University "This excellent collection documents the vitality and relevance of contemporary philosophy of education. Its combination of disciplinary and topical subject matters provides a framework for discussions that are philosophically rigorous at the same time that they touch upon and illuminate many of the prevailing educational concerns of our time. Most impressively, this collection blends the voices of 45 different scholars, from 11 different nations, into a coherent conversation around the discipline's history, development, and future prospects." Nicholas C. Burbules, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign "The top people writing this (Barnett on the university, Bridges on the market, Griffiths on feminism and equity, Halstead on values, Noddings on social policy, Peters on postmodernism, Wringe on democracy) provide a well-arranged collection of materials likely to interest students of education, studying it at university and in continuing education, as well as educational researchers, ethicists, people looking at citizenship, and anyone lecturing in the field. A comprehensive set of references at the end provides any reader, and any library manager wanting to check this area of their collection, with an excellent benchmark listing." Reference Reviews "The 20 chapters provide a panoramic view of current activity in philosophy of education. They also largely achieve the editors stated goal of placing this activity in the context of key aspects of the nature and development of the discipline."
