Isaac Leon Kandel (1881-1965) was a major figure in educational
philosophy and comparative education in the twentieth century. As a
professor of education at Columbia University's Teachers College,
Kandel almost single-handedly developed the field of comparative
education, and was an early critic of Progressive educational
philosophy. As the definitive biography of one of the twentieth
century's most brilliant writers on education, this book presents
Kandel as a democratic traditionalist who tirelessly advocated the
ideal of liberal education for all. This book tells the story of
Kandel's life and the many obstacles that he faced because of his
faith and political views. The philosophy of democratic schooling
that Kandel embodies is crucial to the reconstruction of American
education today. Peerless Educator will be of interest not only to
scholars of education, but also to practitioners who want to
improve education in the twenty-first century.
