"Philosophy Goes to School presents the subtle but significant changes in Lipman's thought as he continues his pioneering work in developing curricular material that encourages and enables children to participate in the philosophical enterprise" --Tony W. Johnson, University of Texas, San Antonio "In this clearly written book, Professor Lipman makes a compelling case for including philosophy in the elementary school curriculum. As is usual with his writings, it is insightful about how to relate much of traditional philosophical thought to working with children. This book is a necessary complement to Philosophy in the Classroom, particularly in terms of aesthetic creativity." --William S. Hamrick, Southern Illinois University
