Book Review: Aaron Yarmel reviews Arie Kizel (ed.), Philosophy with Children and Teacher Education: International Perspectives on Critical, Creative and Caring Thinking

Abstract

Introduction: In Philosophy with Children and Teacher Education: International Perspectives on Critical, Creative, and Caring Thinking, Arie Kizel has curated a collection of 23 chapters authored by 34 insightful P4wC theorists in a conveniently slim volume of only 234 pages (absent the reference section). Each chapter contains valuable introductions to concepts, perspectives, and projects that can be enjoyed without the commitment of a full-length book chapter or article. Since it would be impossible to provide each contribution the space it deserves in this brief review, I will instead focus on notable examples from each of the volume’s five parts and conclude with a few big-picture comments.
