Recensioner i media

“This book is a veritable treasure-chest for the teacher who wants to learn more about learning and teaching. … John Sullivan’s book is, like the middle-aged judge in Shakespeare’s seven ages of man, ‘full of wise saws and modern instances.’ … I heartily recommend this book to all teachers who aspire to be consecrated to learning.” (John Shortt, International Journal of Christianity & Education, Vol. 22 (03), November, 2018)
