Review
“[This] book directs our attention to literacy in its broadest sense so that we can better evaluate the shortcomings of our work as educators at all levels of learning.”–Contemporary Sociology
“Every chapter . . . asks teachers to think again about how they teach, what they want for their pupils and how to get on with it.”–The Times Educational Supplement
“Freire and Macedo's work cannot be ignored by the student of educational change in contemporary society. It should be consulted by anyone who believes in using education as a vehicle of social change.”–Small Press Book Review
“Freire's provocative explanation of [literacy] could lead to a constructive `dialectical debate' in the United States.”–The Los Angeles Times
