Complexities of Teaching Reviews

'Anyone wishing to grasp what progressivism or child-centredness actually means in situ should turn to Sugrue's case studies, for they meticulously chronicle the daily life of teachers he observed and talked to, isolating what the child-centred vision means for each one ... there are more than glimmers of hope for the future shining from the pages of this book.' - Peter Silcock, New Era in Education, Vol 80:1 April 1999
