Reviews

@qu:...This presentation is both rich and stimulating. He has been obliged, naturally, to select among the almost incomprehensible volume of relevant arguments, events and facts. His aim has been to organise these into surveyable units, bringing system and order to the apparently unsystematic and chaotic. His presentation is lucid both in style and analysis, which makes this book highly readable in spite of the vast scope and complexity of its material.

European Journal of Education, Vol 16, No 1, 1981 @source: @qu:...The text invites you to think and reflect; and it helps you to realise that what we have in common is far and away more important than what divides us...
