The main concern of the volume is the relation of theory to
practice in education but the book also reviews the state of
educational theory, and its relation to politics. Beginning with a
group of papers on specific areas of the relation between theory
and practice, the book goes on to discuss aspects of the
curriculum, such as curricular principles in recent official
reports, the newly emerging theme of general abilities, and
controversial material in the curriculum. The theme of the third
group of articles is personal autonomy, one of the very few
generally supported educational aims of recent years, and a final
group presents a retrospective view of the Plowden Report.
