Reviews

"I applaud the editors - this volume is a unique contribution to the field of curriculum studies and sets the stage for new generations of curriculum theorists. It extends curriculum theory to the realm of post-structuralism in a very powerful way." - Greg Dimitriadis State University of New York at Buffalo; "...addresses specifically important and very recent developments in the nation and in the world - namely the impact of technology and global capitalism and commercialization on the schools. There is also strong work in this book about religion and education, and that is not something often dealt with in other curriculum texts." - Susan Edgerton Western Michigan University"
