The last half century has created deep tensions in how we analyze
educational and social change. Educators, policymakers, and
concerned citizens have had to cope with competing belief systems
in evaluating and acting upon school policies and practices. This
illuminating book untangles many of the roots of those persistent
debates that have divided the nation for so long. It offers readers
a critical opportunity to reflect on our continuing ideological
struggles by examining popular books that have made a difference in
educational discourse. The editor has specifically selected key
books on social and educational controversies that speak to wide
audiences. They frame contextual issues that so-called "school
reformers" have often neglected - much to the detriment of any real
educational progress. Ultimately, this text is meant to stir our
consciences, to disorder our certainties, and to compel us to treat
education and culture with both reason and passion. It is highly
relevant for courses in social foundations of education, school
reform, educational policy studies, philosophy of education,
history of education, politics of education, curriculum studies,
and teacher education.
