It illuminates how Greene empowers us all as learners of the possible, by identifying learning with the power of the imagination. Greene's work promises hope beyond the impasse that often occurs when learning is reified by educational systems. \u003ci\u003eEducation Beyond Education\u003c\/i\u003e illustrates how Greene redefines the notion of the imaginary  and with it, that of the imagination  as that which expands the possibilities of learning beyond the boundaries by which education is often narrowly defined and practiced. Tracing Greene's key arguments, \u003ci\u003eEducation Beyond Education\u003c\/i\u003e offers a strikingly original and empowering way to see and re-position education beyond its customary limits.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e«As the ‘subject’ of this text, I wish to testify to its fairness and, yes, to its thoughtfulness. Because of John Baldacchino’s scholarly acquaintance with traditions that might infuse and clarify the complexities of education, I think he has shed new light on provinces of meaning I have chosen to inhabit throughout my academic life.»\u003cbr\u003e (Maxine Greene)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  «This is a great book which addresses a contemporary challenge from a multidisciplinary perspective.  Written in a powerful, lucid and persuasive style, Altheide sparks thoughtful discourse on this crucial phenomenon. Altheide's book is to be highly recommended. The topic is current, timely and appropriate.»\u003cbr\u003e (Jerry Komia Domatob, Media, Culture \u0026amp; Society, 32\/2010)","brand":"Peter Lang Publishing Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51039507022167,"sku":"9781433103551","price":60.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781433103551.jpg?v=1750943913","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/education-beyond-education-9781433103551","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
