https://doi.org/10.14507/er.v33.4652Resumen
In this highly readable book about teaching and ethics, Cara Furman weaves philosophical ideas together with examples of teaching practices so that philosophy illuminates the teaching practices, giving them both a new depth. Rather than an abstract treatise about philosophical concepts, Teaching from an Ethical Center is a practical book for teacher educators, teachers, and philosophers of education to explore and articulate their own teaching goals.
