END OF EDUCATION, THE(ISBN=9780679750314) pdf 在线 2025 epub 免费 书籍 下载

Postman suggests that the current crisis in our educational

system derives from its failure to supply students with a

translucent, unifying "narrative" like those that inspired earlier

generations. Instead, today's schools promote the false "gods" of

economic utility, consumerism, or ethnic separatism and resentment.

What alternative strategies can we use to instill our children with

a sense of global citizenship, healthy intellectual skepticism,

respect of America's traditions, and appreciation of its diversity?

In answering this question, The End of Education restores

meaning and common sense to the arena in which they are most

urgently needed.

"Informal and clear...Postman's ideas about education are

appealingly fresh."--New York Times Book Review

媒体评论

　　Postman should be saluted for his courage. This New York

University professor is no abstract theorist; he jumps into the

fray with concrete suggestions on how to revitalize education.

These range from very specific ideas--get rid of all textbooks--to

general proposals on reorganizing schools or the curriculum. --
