ISBN: 9781433120978 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych.

Education can be uncomfortable, unpredictable, and unsettling; it can lead to greater uncertainty and unhappiness. Drawing on the work of Soren Kierkegaard, Miguel de Unamuno, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Simone Weil, Paulo Freire, and others, Peter Roberts shows why these features of...
