WW Norton & Co Party Of Humanity Essays in the French Enlightenment
Book SynopsisThe nine related essays in The Party of Humanity fall into three divisions: three are on Voltaire, presenting the great philosophe as a tough-minded, realistic man of letters who tried to reshape his world, rather than as a merely brittle and shallow wit. Then, three essays discuss the French Enlightenment as a whole and seek for the unity underlying the diversity of tempers and attitudes among its leaders. The last three, which include Mr. Gay's well-known critique of Carl Becker's The Heavenly City of the Eighteenth Century Philosophers, challenge some widely accepted views of the Enlightenment. The longest chapter here is a detailed examination of Rousseau and his reputation among his interpreters. What all nine essays have in common, apart from their portrayal of the philosophes as serious and engaged partisans of humanity, is that they are essays in the social history of ideas; they all treat ideas as inseparable from the specific social and cultural setting from which they eme

Taylor & Francis Ltd Education Autonomy and Critical Thinking
Book SynopsisThe concepts of autonomy and of critical thinking are of key importance in many contemporary accounts of the aims of education. Education, Autonomy and Critical Thinking analyzes their relationship to each other and to education, explores their roles in mortality and politics, and examines the part critical thinking has to play in fulfilling the educational aim of preparing young people for autonomy.Assessing the significance of the concern with critical rationality as a key intellectual component for a worthwhile life involving autonomy, this book also examines important views about what critical thinking is and how it can be cultivated. Drawing from discussions on epistemology and the philosophy of language which concern the nature of rationality, Christopher Winch produces a powerful critique of concepts central to contemporary philosophy of education - autonomy and critical thinking.Table of Contents1. Introduction: Autonomy and Education 2. Authority and Autonomy 3. Critical Rationality 4. The Development of Critical Rationality in a Practical Context 5. Critical Thinking and Context Independence 6. Autonomy and the Self 7. Autonomy and Conceptions of the good 8. Autonomy and the Polity 9. Autonomy and Schooling 10.

Taylor & Francis Ltd World Yearbook of Education 2008
Book SynopsisThis volume examines higher education in globalized conditions through a focus on the spatial, historic and economic relations of power in which it is embedded. Distinct geometries of power are emerging as the knowledge production capability of universities is increasingly globalized. Changes in the organization and practices of higher education tend to travel from the âWest to the restâ. Thus, distinctive geographies of knowledge are being produced, intersected by geometries of power and raising questions about the recognition, production, control and usage of university-produced knowledge in different regions of the world.What flows of power and influence can be traced in the shifting geographies of higher education? How do national systems locate themselves in global arenas, and what consequences does such positioning have for local practices and relations of higher education? How do universities and university workers respond to the increasing commodification of knowledgeTable of Contents1.Introduction: Geographies of Knowledge, Geometries of Power: Higher Education in the 21st Century, Debbie Epstein Section 1. 2.

Written for students who are aiming to achieve college success, Achieving Success through Academic Assertiveness: Real life strategies for today's higher education students focuses on the challenges that learners face and encourages positive actions that support triumphs in learning situations. Jennifer Moon creatively explores the importance of this emerging topic and how assertiveness is linked to the process of learning and overall student development, critical thinking and academic achievement. Trade Review"Jennifer Moon, senior lecturer (research) at Bournemouth University in the Centre for Excellence in Media Practice, has written a very useful book for today’s higher education student on the topic of academic assertiveness. This text has, as its primary goal, being a useful guide for students who seek academic success, both socially and in the classroom, though using techniques presented in the book on academic assertiveness."—Review of Higher EducationUS:Ana Marie Cancelli Coastal Carolina Community College (College Student Success Facilitator)„"I strongly recommend this for publication. I find it very timely and very necessary. My institution chooses texts by committee and I would be more than happy to put this text into the mix of texts to consider"„I believe college student success courses could use it as a primary text and I think it would work well as a supplemetal text in English 111"Q. Also, I wanted to know what your thoughts are about the format and the last section Part 3 for Instructors teaching this course"I thought the format was just fine."I am used to receiving a supplemental instructor's manual, but if it would make the text more cost effective, I think a 3rd section for instructors would be just fine." Kristen Thomas, University of Akron, Academic AdvisorQ: . If the work is intended as a textbook, For which course(s) would it be most appropriate? "course most appropriate : Student Success Seminar b) supplemental text c) currently we are using "Becoming a Master Student" by David Ellis 2006"„OVERALL REACTION : a) I really like the concept, especially utilizing examples/scenarios which would lead to great teaching discussions. b) I think there is a place for a book like this c) I would call it "leading edge" because I am not familiar with one that is out there that deals with this topic. d) The potential shelf life 2-3 years maximum before a revision would be needed. I like the timeliness of this information because of the type of student coming to college""Yes I recommend the book and our committee that selects textbooks for our Student Success Seminar course would definitely consider using it.""All college students can benefit from this book, it offers them a fresh new perspective, one that shows them they can control their destiny if they are willing to learn important communication and "life skills" which are essential in the pursuit of higher education."Babrbara Doyle, Arkansas State University, Director of Assessement"This text approaches topics covered in most freshman orientation courses or study skills courses.""The topic is not affected by the passage of time. The material is not prone to become outdated. The tips and strategies provided would be timeless information for college students 50 years ago and 50 years in the future"UK:Kate Exley:University of Leeds" The rationale for such a book is convincing and there appears to be a growing need for study skills and study guidance books that can give a wide range of students speedy orientation to a more independent mode of study."Phil Race: Leeds Metroplitan University (Areas of specialty Assessment, learning and teaching in higher education) "Writing style seems fit-for-purpose – friendly and stimulating.
