Political and religious leaders including Blair and Bush have been joined by the popular press in Enlightenment-bashing and bitter attacks on  liberal parenting calling for a return to authority and religious tradition. How do we raise good children? How do we make good citizens? In defiant yet acute fashion, Stephen Law urges us to re-evaluate the liberal tradition of thinking about morality. Tackling authoritarian rhetoric head-on, he argues that children should learn about right and wrong, and respect for others, but that their education should be grounded in the hard-won values of the Enlightenment. Taking on neo-conservatives and religious and media commentators, The War for Children's Minds is a candid and controversial call for a liberal, philosophically informed approach to raising children. A staunch defence of the humane, liberal life, The War for Children's Minds is a much-needed guide to an urgent moral conundrum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Law\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0415427681\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780415427685\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2007\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.59lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.41h x 6.66w x 0.61d","brand":"Stephen Law","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44860084617471,"sku":"9780415427685","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bce014c2-3ed4-4b69-945f-13b1ad31ae00.jpg?v=1709135362","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-war-for-childrens-minds-stephen-law-9780415427685","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
