A major international reference series providing comprehensive accounts of the work of seminal educational thinkers from a variety of periods, disciplines and traditions. It is the most ambitious and prestigious such project ever published - a definitive resource for at least a generation. The thinkers include: Aquinas, Aristotle, Bourdieu, Bruner, Dewey, Foucault, Freire, Holt, Kant, Locke, Montessori, Neill, Newman, Owen, Peters, Piaget, Plato, Rousseau, Steiner, Vygotsky, West and Wollstonecraft.
Pierre Bourdieu is indisputably a major thinker in education. Michael Grenfell's volume offers the most coherent account of Bourdieu's educational thought. This work is divided into:
Intellectual biography
Critical exposition of Bourdieu's work
The reception and influence of Bourdieu's work and The relevance of the work today.
