Os artigos do livro são bem heterogêneos. A maioria, senão todos, exploram as biografias e conquistas dos autores, mas nem todas comentam de maneira mais completa e profunda a obra de cada autor. Além disso, como em tudo, os autores são em sua grande maioria americanos ou escrevem na língua inglesa.

ممتع، من ناحية تدريسية. يستعرض سير التربويين من (زمان) بشكل مختصر غير مخل. قراءته كانت ممتعة لي لأنها استحثت الكثير من التفكير في الطرق التي دعوا إليها أو تبنوها و في محاولة فهم منطقهم.


الكتاب به الكثير من المعلومات التي تستحق التدوين. أظنه يعد مرجعا مهما لكل تربوي يحتفظ به في مكتبته.


*لم أدون منه شيئا؛ لكثر المعلومات و ضيق الوقت.

I can hardly believe that Routledge would publish a book with so many misspellings, meanderings, and malapropisms. How did this book get published? Was it edited at all? Or did someone assume, being it's a book on education theory, that no one would actually read it?
