Stanley Aronowitz, Henry A. Giroux

Recensioner i media

`Aronowitz & Giroux argue that criticism should be matched by a `discourse of possibilities'. Their book admirably exemplefies this approach. They develop a critique defying orodoxy and they offer school reforms which incorporate, rather than dismiss, existing professional practice...a powerful contribution to the emancipation of eductional theory and schooling.' - British Educational Research Journal
