ISBN: 9780750710169 / Angielski / Twarda / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book addresses concerns about educational and moral standards in a world increasingly characterised by nihilism.

They state that we need to create a new set of values based on a critical assessment of contemporary...

Du Bois on Education

DuBois on Education corrects this oversight by collecting Du Bois's major writings on education in one volume. Together these selections powerfully demonstrate Du Bois's commitment to racial educational equality and his contributions to educational thought. Raised in poverty himself, Du Bois combined public education with determination to become the first African-American to receive a Ph.D. from Harvard. Yet he saw that education could...
