Martusewicz's celebrations of Wendell Berry in this book offer us priceless gifts and essential insights for healing all the damages of our destructive era. This book challenges us how to put into practice Berry's philosophy of living and learning inside as well as outside the confines of classrooms across the world. -Madhu Suri Prakash, Penn State University, USA This book is long overdue. Berry is one of the `greats'; his writings still reverberate throughout all fields of education. This book contextualizes Berry's writings in contemporary yet unsustainable times. -Amy Cutter-Mackenzie, Southern Cross University, Australia This volume invites educators into a conversation with the work of Wendell Berry, one of America's most revered writers on the themes of environment, culture, community, place, and what it means to be responsibly alive in the world. With careful attention to Berry's novels, essays, and poems, Martusewicz shows how Berry's work can inspire us to re-imagine our place in the world and to inhabit our roles as educators more responsibly. -David A.
