Philosophy is vital to the study of education, and a sound knowledge of different philosophical perspectives leads to a deeper engagement with the choices and commitments you make within your educational practice.
This introductory text provides a core understanding of key moments in the history of Western philosophy. By introducing key transition points in that history, it investigates the plight of present day education, a period in which the aims and purposes of education have become increasingly unclear, leaving education open to the rise of instrumentalism and the forces of capital.
Accessibly written, the book carefully analyses the common assumptions and conflicted history of education, provoking questioning about its nature and purposes. The authors argue vigorously that thinking critically about education from a philosophical perspective will give practicing and trainee teachers, as well as students on undergraduate Education and Masters-level courses a fuller command of their own role and context.

Education and Philosophy accomplishes a rare feat. It provides a lucid, accessible and comprehensive introduction to the long traditions of education and philosophy and their co-implication, as well as to philosophy of education. An exciting and provocative reading of education and philosophy, it offers a diagnosis of our contemporary educational ills, arguing that the current state of education is a symptom of the crisis of modernity, whilst refusing a nostalgic return to the past. This book constitutes a major contribution both to philosophy of education and to philosophy, which so often today forgets its intimate relationship with education.
