Product Description
Acclaimed as the "best overview in the field" by the Teaching Philosophy and predicted to "become the standard textbook in philosophy of education" by Educational Theory, this now-classic text includes an entirely new chapter on problems of school reform, examining issues of equality, accountability, standards, and testing.

 Watch out for the printing fault February 15, 2008
1 out of 3 found this review helpful
My copy of the 2nd Edition contains a large section of pages that have been duplicated and the pages that should be there are missing. The book seems good other than that, but check your copy for this fault immediately upon delivery. I would have given it a good rating if not for this fault.
First versus Second Edition December 19, 2007
A decent text introducing at least the basic framework for philosophical
positions to those without a lot of philosophy background. Nice to use
as a secondary text supplementing primary texts. One things to make sure of, however; get the second edition and not the first. I ordered a used edition thinking that it would be the second edition as Amazon has grouped it. It wasn't however. The first edition's last chapter is on feminism whereas the second's is on school reform. I am now going to have to order another one because of Amazon's screw up!

Nel Noddings provides a good introductory text to the history of educational philosophy accessible even to those with little or no formal philosophical background.
