Forgotten Heroes of American Education The Great Tradition of Teaching Teachers

Softcover, Greenwich, Connecticut: Information Age Publishing, 2006. Near Fine. "This splendid collection reminds me of friend's shelf: 'Books banned by the Nazis', containing Freud, Marx, Kafka, Brecht, and a host of other outstanding thinkers and writers - much better authors than the ones the Nazis permitted. Is the analogy far fetched? Not entirely. Just as those earlier book-banners labeled authors 'Un-German', so our schools of education now think it sufficient to label authors 'traditional' to consign them to oblivioun - even when the writers gathered here are not currently traditonal at all...." -E.
