Education and the Common Good : Essays in Honor of Robin Barrow (Routledge International Studies in the Philosophy of Education)

Robin Barrow has been one of the leading philosophers of education for more than forty years.

It will focus on his work on curriculum, the analytic tradition in philosophy, education and schooling, and his use of Greek philosophy to enrich current debates in the subject. This work will be of interest to all those who have been influenced by his contributions to educational and philosophical debate.
