Recenzii
In this latest and revised book, the Irish authors have provided a well-written, very well referenced and accessible inspiration for teachers anywhere to investigate their practice. The book provides clear guidelines and questions to stimulate self-study action research while interspersing the advice with meaningful and credible accounts of how this has been done in each author’s own practice. I warmly recommend this book to any wanting to enhance their own teaching practice.

Reading this book is like talking to four wise and kind mentors. It is full of conversations that I wish I’d had as a beginning teacher, as a new postgraduate student, and as a new university lecturer. In fact, it is also the type of conversation that I still value and benefit from forty years into the job. The authors skilfully draw on their own, and other experiences, to explore, challenge and develop their own, and their readers’ criticality and educational thinking. In doing so, they have produced a text that is theoretically rich, while being fully grounded in the practice of education.
