In this important survey, an international group of leading philosophers charts the development of the field in the twentieth century and points to important questions for its future. Each chapter has been written as a collaboration between authors in order to emphasize the diversity of thought, and where appropriate, the dissent and debate that is intrinsic to the field. The contributors explore social and cultural theories, politics and education, philosophy as education, teaching and curriculum, and ethics and upbringing. "The Blackwell Guide to Philosophy of Education" is state-of-the-art map to the field as well as a valuable reference book. |
