«John Goodlad's steadfast faith in public education as a cornerstone of our democracy, as well as his positive approach to educational reforms, serve as refreshing counterpoints to the strident criticism that schools, teachers and teacher education programs have increasingly been subjected. This tribute to him celebrates his profound professional and personal commitment to children and the schools that serve them; it conveys both the substance and the fundamental spirit of his work.» (Diana Natalicio, President, University of Texas at El Paso)
«Inspired by John Goodlad's remarkable half century as an educational thinker and practitioner, twenty-two essayists provide an unparalleled panorama of educational issues - past, present, and future. Through their words of tribute, Goodlad emerges as the American educator who has today inherited the mantle of John Dewey.» (Howard Gardner, Professor of Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education)
