Philosophy & Education: An Introduction in Christian Perspective by George R. Knight

5.0

This is a truly excellent book with regards to the philosophical foundations of various educational systems, and how a Christian ought to build a philosophical foundation for Christian education. As someone who is still getting used to a lot of philosophical fields and nomenclature and such, there were parts of this book that were somewhat difficult to understand/went a bit over my head, but Knight still did an excellent job of explaining a lot of this to me. While I didn't necessarily understand everything, that which I did understand was good. Knight made a very effective argument for why Christian education can't look like secular education with a dash of Christianity thrown in; we begin on a very different philosophical footing, and thus our educational system must reflect that. Overall, it did a great job of analyzing philosophies and related educational practices from a Christian perspective, and also functioned as a great introduction for me to various philosophical fields.

Rating: 4.5-5 Stars. (Excellent)
