Education prepares youth for adulthood - for their own good and for society's. To achieve this central goal, civilization has long relied on character education as much as academic training. Yet character education fell out of favor in the last century. But as the consequences of this neglect have become apparent, character education has staged a dramatic comeback. To solidify and extend these recent gains, this book describes the enduring reasons for character education by examining its theoretical foundation and highlighting its many successes, particularly through its most popular method - the nonpartisan, nonsectarian CHARACTER COUNTS! framework. This co-publication of Unlimited Publishing LLC and the Josephson Institute is truly a work that belongs in every educator's bookcase - and action plan.
