Leave No Child Behind: Preparing Today's Youth for Tomorrow's World

Comer's book offers an essential addition to curriculum and a complex description of the many instances of practice in which his proposal has been tested and found useful. One point that he did not mention is that throughout the country education is considered to be a social science in which all processes and relationships are causal; as he does say there is a presumption of no choice on the part of children. This seems to me to go hand-in-hand with the fact that except for the work of Matthew Lipman and Richard Paul philosophy is never taught at the primary and secondary school. Comer's book makes sense!
