4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Text, November 2, 2007
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Education in a Global Society: A Comparative Perspective (Hardcover)
A compendium of educational systems and their challenges. You learn the unique issues in each culture. We beat-up Americans and our schools but they are clearly without the challenges that other societies and cultures must over come. Even so, the reader gains insight into our problems and how the World has addressed the same issues that we see and delve into on a daily basis. A very good text!

1.0 out of 5 stars Too expensive for its uselessness., October 30, 2007
By 
This review is from: Education in a Global Society: A Comparative Perspective (Hardcover)
Expensive books always raise my blood pressure and this one really did it for me. Almost 100 for a book I looked at for just a month or so. Not worth a read- only buy it if you must.
