It raises critical questions, pleads for a reflexive pedagogy, and seeks to
relate deeper moral/philosophic issues to the culture of learning. From school
education to higher learning it throws light on classification and dissemination
of knowledges, texts and practices, and pedagogic interventions and creative
possibilities. With philosophic contemplation, dialogic interaction and
sociological reflection it visualizes a culture of learning capable of
contributing to the making of a spiritually elevated/ecologically
sensitive/egalitarian society. Here is a book that needs to be read by
sociologists, social philosophers, educationists, and all those who celebrate
the vocation of teaching.
