| Synopsis: |
In Philosophers as Educators Brian Patrick Hendley argues that philosophers of edu-cation should reject their preoccupation with defining terms and analyzing concepts and embrace the philosophical task of con-structing general theories of education. Hendley discusses in detail the educational philosophies of John Dewey, Bertrand Rus-sell, and Alfred North Whitehead. He sees in these men excellent role models that contem-porary philosophers might well follow. Hendley believes that, like these men-tors, philosophers should take a more ac-tive, practical role in education. Dewey and Russell ran their own schools, and Whitehead served as a university admin-istrator and as a member of many com-mittees created to study education. |
