Recenzii

'The book is short, with helpful chapter synopses and clearly flagged debating points. Undergraduate students of education or philosophy will find it helpful and challenging.' - Michael Duffy, Times Educational Supplement
'Winch and Gingell’s book should be welcomed by those teacher educators and their students looking for philosophically informed discussion of the broad policy context within which teachers now work. Certainly I recommend the book to them. It would be easy to use as a set text as it is clearly written, contains summaries of the arguments at appropriate points and questions for discussion which might be used in tutorials.' -John Halliday, British Journal of Educational Studies, February 2006
