“
Our profession is at a critical crossroad....We must accept Cochran-Smith’s challenge to speak loudly and articulately for social justice and democracy. Could our society face a more urgent or compelling issue?”
—From the Foreword
by
Jacqueline Jordan Irvine
"This volume represents not only the best of Cochran-Smith, it represents the best of teacher education. These essays are hard-hitting yet lyrical, provocative yet poetic, theoretically sophisticated yet practically useful. Teacher education is in good hands.”

“Cochran-Smith invites us to follow her courageous path of conceptualizing and practicing social justice in teacher education. Wisely framing her work as solving both a "learning problem" and a "political problem," she makes brilliantly clear why today's intense struggle over the definition of teacher quality is no less than a struggle over the soul of public education.”
