A set of stories about how something as simple as ordinary talk among teachers can become a powerful medium for teacher learning and professional development. It draws on the work of eight groups of teachers in the US and Israel who met in conversation over a period of four to five years.

Trade Review
This is a wonderfully helpful book for educators who want to develop highly collaborative and creative learning environments for themselves, their colleagues, and their students. - Mary Field Belenky, Coauthor of Women's Ways of Knowing and A Tradition That Has No Name ""These authors are convinced that conversation groups can constitute a low-cost, sustainable, satisfying, and significant form of teacher professional development. And they demonstrate it. This is an important book. It is a ""must read"" for teachers, teacher educators, researchers, and those who seek to understand teacher development, growth, and change and the role of conversation in that."" - Nona Lyons, Editor of With Portfolio in Hand
