Paulo Freire is the author of the bestselling Pedagogy of the Oppressed as well as Education for Critical Consciousness, Pedagogy in Process (The Letters to Guinea-Bissau), Learning to Question (with Antonio Faundez), and Pedagogy of the City
"[Paulo Freire] radiates the kind of immediateness that only a
philosopher engulfed by terrible reality can project." America
"An inspiring and inspired document arising out of concrete
experience with peasants, urban laborers, and middle class converts
to freedom. . . . This book will prompt the reader to reconsider
his or her situation in an oppressive society." Christian
Century
"Brilliant methodology of a highly charged and politically
provocative character." Jonathan Kozol
"Pedagogy of the Oppressed meets the single criterion of a
'classic': it has outlived his own time and its author's. For any
teacher who links education to social change, this is required
reading. Freire remains the most important writer on popular
education and surely the virtual founder of the perspective known
as Critical Pedagogy." Stanley Aronowitz
"This is truly revolutionary pedagogy." Ivan Illich
"Wherever education is explicitly involved in struggles for equity
and justice, Freire's ideas and his books, especially Pedagogy of
the Oppressed, will live on." Herbert Kohl in The Nation
"This is truly revolutionary pedagogy."--Ivan Illich
