A History of Western Philosophy of Education Reviews

[About the series] Not since Robert Ulich's groundbreaking A Thousand Years of Educational Wisdom has there been such a comprehensive examination of the history of western educational thought. Given that Ulich's work was published almost eighty years ago, there is an obvious need for an update. This series more than fills the bill by adding important topics such as feminism, racism, pluralism, and critical theory. The series goes a long way in bringing the history of Western educational thought up to date. It will be of enormous value to students of educational history and philosophy. * Walter Feinberg, Charles Hardie Professor Emeritus, Educational Philosophy, The University of Illinois, Champaign/Urbana, USA. *
