About the Author :
James Scott Johnston is Assistant Professor of Philosophy and Education at Queen's University in Canada and the author of Inquiry and Education: John Dewey and the Quest for Democracy, also published by SUNY Press.

Review :
"...Johnston sets an ambitious and important goal-applying Deweyan inquiry to the problem of teaching children in K-12. He relies primarily on Dewey's (1938) Logic: The Theory of Inquiry, a work seldom applied to educational settings. For this alone Johnston should be applauded." - Education and Culture "Johnston ably navigates the dense theory of Dewey and constructs thought-provoking examples useful to the practitioner." - CHOICE
