Synopsis
Designed for those wanting to be teachers, administrators, or other educational practitioners, this work shows how the study of educational philosophy should and can be of considerable practical value.
Booknews
Addresses the philosophy of education as a variety of philosophical thinking, and attempts to show the practical value of it. Analyzes fictional case studies, and gives greater attention to the moral aspects of educational practice than it does to its logical, metaphysical, or epistemological dimensions. Each case study is followed by an identification of the central topic, the characteristics and norms of moral agency, and conclusions. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
