About This Title
"This is a blockbuster of a book. It allows teachers to follow standards, but provides space for them to develop students’ wisdom, intelligence, and creativity (and of course success). Both teachers and students will come to understand themselves and their values better."
—William E. Doll, Jr., Professor Emeritus
Louisiana State University
