商品簡介
Despite his failure to achieve a comprehensive public education system in Virginia, Thomas Jefferson's ideas about education as a bulwark against aristocratic privilege continues to inform the best of public education today, argues Addis (American history, Texas A&M U.). He explores the development of Jefferson's ideas, especially as they were contradictorily embodied in the founding of the U. of Virginia, and discusses his impact on public education throughout American history.
