Reviews

""There is still much to be learned here about the role of 'the school' where the aspiration toward some sort of common democratic project endures. Feinberg's writings strengthen the sense that this essential tension remains."" — David Blacker, author of Deeper Learning with Psychedelics: Philosophical Pathways through Altered States ""Feinberg's essays really help explain his approach to the philosophy of education and his particular issues of interest. He also demonstrates how contingency shapes our lives and experiences, including things like 'white privilege'—who benefits, who doesn’t, and why."" — David A. Granger, editor of John Dewey: A Reader for Teachers and Education Students
