Forms of Education by Emile Bojesen

Forms of Education analyses the basic tenets of the humanist legacy in terms of its educational ethos, examining its contradictions and its limits, as well as the extent of its capture of educational thought. It develops a broader conception of educational experience, which challenges and exceeds those limits.

"The book challenges and invites the reader to explore alternative modes of thought and forms of education that do not lead to certain and stable conceptions of the subjectAs a result, it is down to us to choose how to respond to his invitation to join or start a conversation about how education might be conceived differently in our own practice and research."

Sharon Smith, University of Birmingham, cited in: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00071005.2020.1785788

"Forms of Education is a work of philosophy of education with the kind of energy and emotion often absent in writing on education... Overall, the text, while dense in places, is a compelling read that jars with established educational thought. Its style has a pace and energy to it, not always a feature of philosophy of education literature."

Lewis Stockwell, University of Hertfordshire, cited in: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00131857.2020.1772010 and https://www.philosophy-of-education.org/book-reviews/book-review-forms-of-education/
