Book Overview
Foreword by A. C. Grayling.
Are human beings flawed? Is murder an act of insanity or just plain thoughtlessness?
Do we need a soul?
From the fall of Icarus to the rise of Caesar, this practical book draws upon history, philosophy and literature to provoke students to think, question and wonder. Divided into chapters on the world, self, society and others, this resource for secondary school is written to give teachers the means to listen rather than teach "€" and to allow the ideas and thoughts of students to form the center of the lesson.
With a clear outline on its use both in and out of the classroom, the book also contains tips and advice to help guide teachers to span the curriculum; applicable to history, geography, science, art, English and citizenship, and offers teachers the opportunity to introduce a student-centered approach.
