The Blackwell Handbook of Education by Michael Farrell
A new and innovatory volume, the Blackwell Handbook of Education is both authoritative and accessible and will be an invaluable guide for anyone involved in the field of education. It covers a wide variety of topics in A to Z format, and also features separate guides to acronyms, organisations and legislation, as well as both alphabetical and classified indexes.
"Well organized and filled with recent data and significant educational researchUsers will be struck by the inclusion of many educational terms and issues such as hyperactivity, multicultural education, and readiness that are familiar to those used in the United States. Education professors and administrators needing information on specific British government-sponsored reports and legislation from 1861 to the present will find the chronological list in section 4 especially helpful." Kathleen W. Craver, ARBA
