Book excerpt: Humanistic Critique of Education’s ten essays by noted scholars address the subject of educational policy, methods, ideology and more, with stress upon the rhetoric of contemporary teaching and learning.

These essays will spark dialogue about improving education in democratic societies through the lens of humanism.
