While retaining the first edition's essential features, this second edition continues to create an historical perspective for students of education by identifying & analyzing the significant formative ideas & institutions that have shaped the western educational heritage.
This book, once you make it beyond the first chapter, is a very informative and surprisingly easy read. Because of its formulaic chapters, notation comes easy. I'm having to use this book for a course right now. Even if I did not like the class itself, I wouldn't take it out on this book.
