- "This book presents eighteen essays on education and values drawn from the 21st Conference on Value Inquiry.

Educational conditions and reforms in Italy, Canada, and the United States are discussed. The book offers valuable ideas for reflection to anyone with an interest in formal education or a love of lifelong learning."--BOOK JACKET.
