Dear colleagues,
I'm delighted to let you know that George Hein's new book, Progressive Museum Practice: John Dewey and Democracy, is now available. It's a must-read, and it's available in paperback, hardcover, and eBook editions.
"Infused with Hein's trademark warmth and fair-mindedness, this book will spark rich discussion about John Dewey and our progressive museum education heritage, and is sure to be welcomed across the field."
-Rika Burnham, Head of Education, The Frick Collection
"Hein pushes us beyond the pedagogy of progressive education to acknowledge its moral core -- Dewey's commitment to social justice and democracy. Along the way he upends some misconceptions about how novel current thinking actually is. An exhaustive and invaluable contribution to the continuing story of the history, meaning and contributions of museum education."
-Leslie Bedford, Ph.D, Leadership in Museum Education Program, Bank Street College of Education
