Education, argues William Thompson, is about more than teaching skills and knowledge. It's about transmitting a culture and a heritage, and in doing so we have an opportunity to transform our cultural legacy. This exciting interdisciplinary thinker offers a whirlwind tour from ancient literature to Disney and current politics, presenting a far-reaching system of teaching which can stimulate the best and healthiest patterns of development in our children and teenagers.

Each of his books is a further extension of his vision.' -- Richard A. Falk, Princeton University, author of The Heart of Philosophy
