Product Description Acclaimed as the "best overview in the field" by the Teaching Philosophy and predicted to "become the standard textbook in philosophy of education" by Educational Theory, this now-classic text includes an entirely new chapter on problems of school reform, examining issues of equality, accountability, standards, and testing. | ||

Watch out for the printing fault My copy of the 2nd Edition contains a large section of pages that have been duplicated and the pages that should be there are missing. The book seems good other than that, but check your copy for this fault immediately upon delivery. I would have given it a good rating if not for this fault. | ||
First versus Second Edition A decent text introducing at least the basic framework for philosophical positions to those without a lot of philosophy background. Nice to use as a secondary text supplementing primary texts. One things to make sure of, however; get the second edition and not the first. I ordered a used edition thinking that it would be the second edition as Amazon has grouped it. It wasn't however. The first edition's last chapter is on feminism whereas the second's is on school reform. I am now going to have to order another one because of Amazon's screw up! | ||
Nel Noddings "Philosophy of Education" Textbook This book came quickly and was in excellent condition. I will be using it for a course I am taking and am thankful for the savings,quick delivery, and good condition of this book. Much thanks to the seller and Amazon.com | ||
Good introductory text. Nel Noddings provides a good introductory text to the history of educational philosophy accessible even to those with little or no formal philosophical background. | ||
