Product Description: Can schooling transform society? This visionary book argues that it can if we look beyond the traditional view of education as a means to finding jobs or getting ahead, and we attend to the personal development and enrichment of the whole child.
Moffet calls for individualized learning models. James Moffet puts a lot of pieces together in this book. The book will appeal most to readers who share the author'sinterest in metaphysical and esoteric spirituality, individualized learning models, and social justice issues. My favorite line from the book: "Each community should organize a totally individualized far-flung learning network giving people of all ages access to any learning resource at any time." (p. xvi) Sounds like a mission statement for Amazon.com! For a more complete, published review of this work, try http://www.pacificrim.net/~rbunge/resources.html
