4.0 out of 5 stars Democracy in Education, August 30, 2011

Tricia Collins (Philadelphia, PA United States) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Paideia Problems & Possibilities (Paperback)

This education theorist rightly opines about the unfairness in the U S education public school system. He includes the necessity for inclusion and his work can be paralleled to that of John Dewey's 1916 work Democracy and Education.
