successfully joins educational philosophy to moral philosophy, and
does so without artifice.' - Jonathon Jacobs, Journal of Moral
Education

literature gives their discussions a kind of traction that
philosophical debates often lack' - Journal of Moral Education

establishment and beyond. - Caroline Hancock, Trinity College,
