'In Social Studies in the New Education Policy Era, Editors Paul Fitchett and Kevin Meuwissen pose significant policy-related questions to 22 social studies scholars and professionals. The result is a series of engaging and thought-provoking conversations between pairs of contributors about the past, current, and potential role of policies and political actors in social studies education. The lively dialogue between contributors reveals shared and divergent perspectives, and often suggests the complexity of policy in relation to impacts and contexts. In-depth conversations focused on policy and policy advocacy in social studies are rare; I believe the informative and spirited dialogue in this book will serve as the basis for much needed further discussion among all who care about the future of social studies education.'

    This seller replied quickly to my inquiry and was upbeat and positive in all communications. After the seller confirmed that the part would fit my range, I ordered the set of oven racks and they arrived as described, well packaged, and in good time. The new oven racks are a perfect match to my old ones, and a good value, at a reasonable price. Out with the rusty old ones, in with the shiny new chrome ones. Back to safe baking! --Lily

    The seller and product are great. Price is competitive. Delivery being out of their control once shipped , the product was delivered to a wrong address. The delivery email picture helped us figure out the location and we went and picked it up. Seems like an isolated error that was remedied easily and not ill intended or negligent. Just a mix up of numbers and the kindness of honest people out of hundreds of deliveries.
