Interest in this field is growing across the world, and there are few books that attempt to explain it in a comprehensive and thoughtful manner. This new edition includes many significant developments that have emerged since the book's previous edition. - Aostre N. Johnson, Ed.D., Emeritus Professor of Education, Saint Michael's College John P. Miller's The Holistic Curriculum is one of the most important education books ever published in Canada. The book is a classic and no one has done more to promote holistic education than Jack Miller. One of the many strengths of Miller's scholarship is the way he unites many perspectives from wide-ranging disciplines in his conceptualization of holism and holistic curriculum. He cites poets, political leaders, philosophers, and Indigenous teachers in order to explain holistic education in cogent and compelling ways. He was an early leader in this field and he continues to be the most significant education scholar in the world with a focus on holistic education. - Carl Leggo, Department of Language and Literacy Education, University of British Columbia
