Review :

`The book should be of interest in the intended way because it successfully joins educational philosophy to moral philosophy, and does so without artifice.' - Jonathon Jacobs, Journal of Moral Education

`This is a good book.' - journal of Moral Education

`the authors' knowledge of the social scientific and psychological literature gives their discussions a kind of traction that philosophical debates often lack' - Journal of Moral Education
