Customer Reviews and Description David Harvey is an outstanding scholar, from a left wing perspective, who has the ability to crystallise world events and economic trends in sharp, memorable observations. His analysis of neoliberalism as the default belief system of the late twentieth century is convincing and his delineation of its faults, including a wide divergence between the idealism of the theory and its deviations in practice, is also pithy and to the point. As usual, once left wing thinkers move to the solution the issue is less clear, ... Read MoreRead Reviews and Description

Customer Reviews and Description I believe the book presents a VERY socialistic view that is not in line with the realities of our modern day society.

Customer Reviews and Description Research shows that what we know in our hearts is true. What the state forces us to do through testing takes us totally in the opposite direction of what helps children to learn most. Lot's of good insights in this book; I am still reading it.

Customer Reviews and Description Every educated Asian I know (who has read this book) has given this book high marks. While a number of Anglo Americans I know have given this book mixed marks and at times (as with some of the reviewers here) have challenged the premise that there are cultural aspects to how we think. In the field of anthropology, this kind of Anglo skepticism has a technical term "naive realism." Nisbett challenges his own self-admitted naive realism to see the possibility of radically different worldviews underlying East and West cultures. What is unique ...

Customer Reviews and Description This book is a great collection of life wisdom (in the classroom, in the home, out in society) as told through the eyes and perspectives of the kind of grade-school teacher most everyone wishes they had, but so few (too few) ever have.
