The School and Society

This edition brings Dewey`s educational theory into sharp focus, framing his two classic works by frank assessments, past and present, of the practical applications of Dewey`s ideas. In addition to a substantial introduction in which Philip W. Jackson explains why more of Dewey`s ideas haven`t been put into practice, this edition restores a "lost" chapter, dropped from the book by Dewey in 1915.
