Philosophy & theory of education
Hardback. Reconstructing the idea and practice of education, this book argues that we construct education ourselves rather than being shaped by social vision. Problems such as violence, inequality, and low achievements, are then seen as reflections of problems of the mind. This book proposes a new perspective through philosophy, neuroscience and psychology. Num Pages: 343 pages, 14 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: JNA; JNC; JNKD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 156 x 216 x 25. Weight in Grams: 660.
