About the contributors
Reviews
-
'Dan Moulin has written a book that helps us see Tolstoy as a significant educational philosopher in spite of the glare of his fame as perhaps the greatest of novelists. Moulin brings us into Tolstoy's world, a world of polemics, epics and fictions. He carefully and critically engages the reader in Tolstoy's sometimes arrogant approach to educational theorists, and his always humble approach to the wisdom and spirit of children.' Julian Stern, Dean of the Faculty of Education & Theology, York St John University, UK
-
Moulin's book is a concise yet thorough examination of Tolstoy's work in education... [it] should not just be of interest to those inquiring into Tolstoy ideas but anyone interested in exploring the basic issues that face all educators.
John P. Miller, University of Toronto, Canada, International Journal of Children's Spirituality
