The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Education by Harvey Siegel Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The essays serve as an introduction to key issues in philosophy of education, and advance the discussion of those issues in original and fruitful ways. Distinguished philosophers address a broad range of philosophical questions concerning education--the first cohort of outstanding general philosophers to do so (in English) in a generation. Publisher Description Philosophy of education has an honored place in the history of Western philosophical thought. Its questions are as vital now, both philosophically and practically, as they have ever been. In recent decades, however, philosophical thinking about education has largely fallen off the philosophical radar screen. Philosophy of education has lost intimate contact with the parent discipline to a regrettably large extent--to the detriment of both. TheOxford Handbook of Philosophy of Education is intended to serve as a general introduction to key issues in the field, to further the philosophical pursuit of those issues, and to bring philosophy ofeducation back into closer contact with general philosophy. Distinguished philosophers and philosophers of education, most of whom have made important contributions to core areas of philosophy, turn their attention in these 28 essays to a broad range of philosophical questions concerning education. The chapters are accessible to readers with no prior exposure to philosophy of education, and provide both surveys of the general domain they address, and advance the discussion in those domains inoriginal and fruitful ways. Together their authors constitute a new wave of general philosophers taking up fundamental philosophical questions about education--the first such cohort of outstandinggeneral philosophers to do so (in English) in a generation.
