Reviews

. . . this volume makes an important contribution by prompting and inviting readers to take matters forward in their own engagement with the problem of ignorance. Even in titling the book Miseducation Angulo plants the seeds for exciting debate and discussion about what it might mean for historians to identify that which has been mis-educative across time and space - and on what grounds we are able to identify and understand this. -Historical Studies in Education/Revue d'histoire de l'education
