Add your own review!

Reviews

Overall, Magrini has certainly produced a fascinating text that in my view identifies and addresses issues that are fundamental to education and the curriculum. In particular, he skillfully weaves thinkers and ideas together in a way that both makes key underlying themes salient and deepens understanding of the thinkers concerned. - Michael Bonnett, Affiliated Lecturer, University of Cambridge, UK
