“Brookfield writes in a nice easy-to-read autobiographical style. He explains and fully discusses many good techniques for teaching in an effective and humane manner. Everybody who teaches, whether they teach children or adults, will benefit from reading this interesting book and learning from his lifetime of experience as a teacher.”
Peter Jarvis, Emeritus Professor of Continuing Education University of Surrey, UK
“This book is not about increasing your power as a teacher – it is about the dynamics of power in the adult classroom, challenging power structures, and the techniques teachers can use to empower learners. Brookfield uses the lens of ‘power’ to distill, for the practitioner, a lifetime’s work of scholarly and practical engagement with adult teaching and learning.”
Mark Tennant, Emeritus Professor, University of Technology, Sydney, Australia
“As he explores the pervasive nature of power in teaching, Stephen Brookfield takes us inside his own teaching, offering a treasure trove of practical ideas – what works and what doesn’t work – in pursuit of democratic educational practices. While reading, I felt as though I was talking with a colleague about his struggles, his strategies, and some of what he has learned across forty years of teaching adults. If you want to see how one of the most widely read academics in adult education brings his scholarship into pedagogical practices, read this book! It will be something you go to time and again for ways to make your teaching more democratic.”
