Recenzje

'This is an excellent overview of how Dewey's understanding of ethics helps teachers, educational leaders, and administrators tackle the complex dilemmas they face today. The use of imagined ethical scenarios in schools is effective in stimulating our moral imagination and demonstrates the power of Dewey's ideas in the context of a school.' Gregory Pappas, Professor of Philosophy, Texas A & M University
