A welcome second edition of what is still the best book of its kind on the market: an invaluable resource for teachers wanting to try out some philosophy in their classroom, and a significant contribution to educational theory. * Michael Hand, Professor of Education, University of Birmingham * This book is invaluable for all those who want to explore the many ways philosophy can enrich the lives of young people. Its lesson plans are imaginative, engaging and eminently practical, and the troubleshooting section, bibliography and website provide superb support. * Angie Hobbs, Professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy, University of Sheffield *
