Autorenporträt

After founding and directing his own democratically run school for children ages six to fourteen for twelve years, one that received widespread attention in the Chicago area as a unique approach to education, Lyn Lesch went on to write four books on education reform. In 2020, he published Intelligence in the Digital Age, which concerns how our current Internet age might be making it increasingly difficult for people to explore a more expansive consciousness.
