Editorial Review (from Amazon.com)
"A Light in Dark Times" features a list of contributors who have been deeply influenced by Professor Greene's progressive philosophies. While Maxine Greene is the focus for this collection, each chapter is an encounter with her ideas by an educator concerned with his or her own works and projects. In essence, each featured author takes off from Maxine Greene and then moves forward. This collection of essays should - as Maxine Greene has - influence a wide range of worlds: arts and aesthetics, literature and literacy studies, cultural studies, school change and improvement, the teaching of literacy, teacher education, philosophy of education, peace and social justice, women's studies and civil rights. Contributors include: William Ayers; Jean Anyon and Louise Berman; Leon Botstein; Deborah P. Britzman; Linda Darling-Hammond; Karen Ernst; Michelle Fine; Norm Fruchter; Madeleine R. Grumet; Sandra Hollingsworth; Mary-Ellen Jacobs; Herbert Kohl; Wendy Kohli; Craig Kridel; Peter McLaren; Maureen Miletta; Janet L. Miller; Sonia Nieto; Nel Noddings; Jo Anne Pagano; Frank Pignatelli; William F. Pinar; Kathleen Reilly; Jonathan G. Silin; Sheila Slater; Candy Systra; Carlos Alberto Torres; and Mark Weiss.User Reviews (0) Login or create an account to write a review.
