More about the book

Focusing on the purpose of education, the book argues that public education is deteriorating due to neglect of essential curricular elements that prepare students for active participation in society. Unlike others that emphasize procedural knowledge, this edition explores the foundational 'what' and 'why' of curriculum, questioning the role of schools in a democratic society and highlighting the importance of these inquiries in shaping educational priorities.
