The childhood-embracing voices of Tolstoy, Montessori, Steiner and Dewey, and more recently, A.S. Neil and John Holt resound in A Heritage of Great Thoughts. The harmonics include former U.N. Undersecretary General Robert Muller's memories of war-torn Alsace Lorraine, and his call for education for peace. Accounts of children thriving in indigenous villages add life-affirming tones. Avant-garde scientific discoveries about the body/heart/brain system resoundingly affirm the wisdom of restoring childhood to children. Finally, vignettes from the pioneering work of the Robert Muller School of Fairview round out this clarion call to transform education.
