Description - Lessons from History of Education by Richard Aldrich

Richard Aldrich is one of the UK's leading historians of education and has spent thirty years researching, thinking and writing about some of the key issues in the field. Having contributed over fifteen books and more than seventy-five articles, Aldrich has chosen eighteen of his best pieces and brought them together in one single volume, for the first time. A specially written introduction by the author contextualizes his selection and provides an overview of his career to date. Clearly structured, this book provides a range of important insights into the real nature of education - past, present and future. The six sections of the book cover: - What is History of Education? - The Historian as Educator - Education Otherwise - Educational Reformers - The Education and Training of Teachers - Curriculum and Standards. It will provide a good introduction to historical approaches to education for educationalists who are not familiar with history, and a good introduction for general historians who know little about the field of education.
