Acclaimed as the "best overview in the field" by the Teaching Philosophy and predicted to "become the standard textbook in philosophy of education" by Educational Theory, this now-classic text includes an entirely new chapter on problems of school reform, examining issues of equality, accountability, standards, and testing.

First versus Second Edition,
By
This review is from: Philosophy of Education (Paperback)
A decent text introducing at least the basic framework for philosophicalpositions to those without a lot of philosophy background. Nice to use as a secondary text supplementing primary texts. One things to make sure of, however; get the second edition and not the first. I ordered a used edition thinking that it would be the second edition as Amazon has grouped it. It wasn't however. The first edition's last chapter is on feminism whereas the second's is on school reform. I am now going to have to order another one because of Amazon's screw up!

Basic Text,
This review is from: Philosophy of Education (Paperback)
I'm using this book as a basic information text. I'[m preparing for an introduction to education class and needed to review the basic philosophies for one of the lessons. While not exhaustive, it provided me with that.

Dewey's a God,
By
This review is from: Philosophy of Education (Paperback)
If you like Dewey, you will like this book. In this book Dewey is a God. In the first chapter as the author reviews different philosophers, he keeps going back to Dewey. There were parts where I was confused because I didn't know if the author was referring to Dewey or another philosopher.
