More about the book
Exploring the interrelationship between childhood and adulthood, David Kennedy offers a comprehensive analysis that draws from various disciplines, including mythology, psychoanalysis, and education. He examines childhood's transformative potential throughout the human life cycle, challenging traditional perspectives on how adults perceive children and vice versa. This work advocates for a new approach to teacher preparation that empowers children as active participants in their education, ultimately envisioning a reformed educational system that values the child's role in social reproduction.
