With opening comments by F. Michael Connelly and an Afterword by Lee Shulman, the volume shows how Miriam Ben-Peretz continued in the academic footsteps of her advisor, Seymour Fox (Hebrew University), and his advisor, Joseph J. Schwab (University of Chicago), who also supervised Connelly and Shulman. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Some book chapters reflect the influence of Miriam Ben-Peretz's academic lineage; some others, instead, feature her signature research; and the final chapters capture her advocacy work with the MOFET Institute, a consortium of Israeli colleges of education created by the Ministry of Education that focuses on research, curriculum, and program development for teacher educators.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lily Orland-Barak\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004533583\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004533585\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Lily Orland-Barak","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44072383840511,"sku":"9789004533585","price":138.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_15766c51-5ba2-4025-9730-bead7298f9ad.jpg?v=1685441636","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-life-of-optimism-lily-orland-barak-9789004533585","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
