History of Education for the Twenty-First Century by David Crook

How should we promote the discipline of History of Education? How can we challenge the tendency to take the past for granted and focus solely on the future? This book provides an agenda for History of Education in the twenty-first century by exploring themes and opening up areas of further debate.
