"This text brings together a wide range of global contributions to examine issues of education from philosophical, sociological and historical perspectives. A particular focus is on the New Zealand context. The early chapters examine the big picture, with globalisation central, while later chapters make strong links between theory and teacher/educator practice."--Provided by publisher.
