GRAHAM P. McDONOUGH, Beyond Obedience and Abandonment: Towards a theory of dissent in catholic education. McGill-Queenâ��s University Press 2012, 307 pages, �£18.99

Abstract

Rev. Fr. Imad Twal

The book was published with the help of a grant from the University of Victoria and has been developed from McDonough's doctoral dissertation on the philosophy of education. As he acknowledges, some of the material in this volume has been published previously, for example, chapter 5 was published in the Journal of Moral Education Vol. 39 No. 4 pp. 421-36 (2010) as McDonough, 'Why Dissent is a vital concept in moral Education.' The book is clearly presented, consists of seven chapters with explanatory titles and subtitles. However it lacks appendices and a glossary which limits the use of the work to less specialist readers
