Recenzje

'Kaufman's extensive quotations from philosophical and historical sources are this slim volume's central strength. These foundational groundings in educational theory and philosophy qualify Badges and Incidents as a sine qua non for graduate classes in US educational history. General readers interested in the history of civil rights will also find this text appealing.' J. H. O'Donnell III, Choice
