Moral education is an enduring concern for societies committed to the value of justice and the wellbeing of children.

Recenzii

'This timely volume addresses perennial moral dimensions of educating alongside some of the most difficult moral issues of our current era with which educators and students must reckon. The editors' selection of contributors is outstanding. The book will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in moral education in the very broadest sense of those terms.' David T. Hansen, Columbia University, USA
'It is rare to see a volume on moral education that, in addition to exploring historical and theoretical approaches, also relates moral education to issues in today's world. I strongly recommend this new volume which brings together established and emerging authors and adds nuance and substance to salient moral topics.' Kristján Kristjánsson, University of Birmingham, UK, and Editor, Journal of Moral Education
'Together, these essays position moral education at the heart of human existence, invigorating our sense of what is at stake in the aspiration to behave better in day-to-day and collective life. The result is a powerful demonstration that reflecting philosophically on educational practice is a necessary bridge to a morally better future. There is so much to appreciate in this boldly imaginative book.' Megan Laverty, Columbia University, USA
'This book sets a new standard in discussions of moral education. It is accessible while maintaining scholarly rigor. It is respectful of classical truths while being urgently relevant to contemporary problems. It covers an ambitious breadth of topics while not sacrificing depth or attention to detail. The contributors of this volume have achieved something truly remarkable.' Bryan Warnick, Ohio State University, USA
