Trade Review
"Saito's elegantly written book is a meditation on what she regards as a crisis of nihilism affecting modern democratic life, especially education." -Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook "... Exemplifies a vision of education as cooperative inquiry in which heterogenous voices resound yet experiential authority in its full force operates." -Journal of Philosophy of Education "Saito has written an important book with a remarkable educational implication: We should educate every individual to grow by recognizing their unique gleam of light in self-transcendent relation with others different from ourselves while recognizing the Over-Soul sustains us all." -Teachers College Record "A provocative book that will be of value to all who care about Emerson, Dewey, and what they have to say about education." -- -David Hansen Philosophy of Education Society " [A] spirited inquiry ..." -Studies in Philosophy and Education
