"Fishman and McCarthy each bring unique tools to their classroom inquiries, and the results are wonderfully readable and illuminating. Their work and humanity point the way for educators to act against civic decline and for civic renewal." Ira Shor, professor of composition and rhetoric, City University of New York Graduate School, "Fishman and McCarthy each bring unique tools to their classroom inquiries, and the results are wonderfully readable and illuminating. Their work and humanity point the way for educators to act against civic decline and for civic renewal." -- Ira Shor, "Fishman and McCarthy each bring unique tools to their classroom inquiries, and the results are wonderfully readable and illuminating. Their work and humanity point the way for educators to act against civic decline and for civic renewal." --Ira Shor, professor of composition and rhetoric, City University of New York Graduate School, "Those who have enjoyed Fishman and McCarthy's earlier collaborations that stir fine philosophy, serious classroom practice, and careful empirical study into a savory stew will find their latest offering to their taste. I also recommend this most recent work to those who have not yet had the pleasure."-- Teachers College Record "Reads like a conversation with someone who not only knows Dewey's thinking well but also is not afraid to experiment with these ideas."-- Education and Culture , ''Fishman and McCarthy each bring unique tools to their classroom inquiries, and the results are wonderfully readable and illuminating. Their work and humanity point the way for educators to act against civic decline and for civic renewal.'' Ira Shor, professor of composition and rhetoric, City University of New York Graduate School, "The study is a superb inquiry: a model for how philosophy should consider the 'problems of men' and how teaching and research should be conducted. Highly recommended."-- Choice, "Fishman and McCarthy each bring unique tools to their classroom inquiries, and the results are wonderfully readable and illuminating.

Synopsis
Inspiring new techniques for engaging students with democratic ideals John Dewey and the Philosophy and Practice of Hope combines philosophical theory with a study of its effects in an actual classroom. To understand how Dewey, one of the century's foremost philosophers of education, understood the concept of hope, Stephen Fishman begins with theoretical questions like: What is hope? What are its objects? How can hope foster a new understanding of democracy and social justice? The book's second half is a classroom study that mir-rors in practice what Fishman explores in theory, as Lucille McCarthy observes Fishman's undergraduate students reading the theorists. Illustrating students' own vital engagement with the hope literature, McCarthy reveals how the discussions deepen student understandings, simultaneously showing education's power to promote hope and turn social ideals into reality., Inspiring new techniques for engaging students with democratic ideals "John Dewey and the Philosophy and Practice of Hope" combines philosophical theory with a study of its effects in an actual classroom.
