Description
Book SynopsisA tremendous amount of energy has been expended by organizations to coordinate “partner schools” for teacher education. Bullough and Rosenberg examine the concept of partnering through various lenses and they address what they think are the major issues that need to be, but rarely are, discussed by thousands of educators.
Trade Review"Bullough and Rosenberg’s new book is a passionate plea for society to reclaim the moral purpose of public schools and universities. By advocating for robust school-university partnerships, they give us hope and remind us that to care is human. Their book is a timely, must-read for those who care about the future of our democratic society." -- Rebecca West Burns * University of South Florida *

"
Schooling, Democracy, and the Quest for Wisdom resets the focus of school reform, re-centers the purpose of partnership, and reassesses the very basis of education itself. Enough cannot be said about Bullough and Rosenberg's impressive intellectual range and their artful and engaging writing." -- Bernard J. Badiali * coauthor of Teacher Leader *
