Open Journal of Modern Neurosurgery Vol. Every effort has been made to present the most up-to-date information about the theme dealt with in each entry. Authors were selected on the strength of their 'worldwide' knowledge of the topic on which they were asked to write.
The authors of over 1, entries represent 96 countries. The Honorary Editorial Advisory Board helped ensure that a balance was achieved and contacts with international organizations assisted in selecting authors with a good international overview. Particular attention has been paid to the inclusion of entries of special concern to the Third World. This is clearly evident in those entries dealing with educational and policy planning, economics of education, vocational education and comparative education.
Gage, Stanford University, USA This updated second edition promises to be even more useful to the educational and scholarship community around the world. Drawing upon highly respected scholars in all the multifarious areas of education - ranging from the most technical empirical methods to the broadest aspects of educational policy making - this work can serve as the reference of first resort for both newcomers and veterans.
Maurice Galton, University of Leicester, UK Such has been the rapid pace of change in education during the last decade, that there is little need for the editors-in-chief of The International Encyclopedia of Education to justify a substantially rewritten second edition ten years after the first.
In recent years key areas such as curriculum, economics of education, evaluation and measurement and, in particular, developments in teaching and teacher education, have all undergone substantial change. The Encyclopedia provides authoritative and well researched surveys of these fields. The Encyclopedia should serve two particular audiences well.
The first is the general readership of teachers in education faculties and their students requiring up-to-date overviews of developments in a particular field. The Encyclopedia will also be of great value to researchers because it provides in ways not available elsewhere, an international perspective on current work.
The last decade has shown us that many education problems are common to most countries and educational research is increasingly being carried out within an international cooperatvive framework.
The Encyclopedia should act as a further stimulus and provide invaluable support for these endeavours. I welcome its publication and will make use of it. Connell, The University of Sydney, Australia This splendid second edition of The International Encyclopedia of Education is more than just a learned report on what has been happening in education.
It is also formative and judgemental, and this is its real significance. The great merit of this Encyclopedia lies in its constructiveness. It helps to establish the foundations of the study of education - by being factual, reflective, and evaluative in a comprehensive way.
Users of the Encyclopedia can see some of the best minds in each field selecting and assessing in Matthew Arnold's words "the best that has been said and thought" in those areas. Not only is it beautifully produced but the cross-referencing between articles, the excellent development of themes and topics, and the extremely useful Volume 12 consisting of a list of contributors, subject and name indices and the classified list of entries make this a very "user friendly" encyclopedia International Journal of Educational Development The 2nd edition is even more impressive [than the first] and must be viewed as a premier resource when judged on virtually every criteria applied to a reference work.
Choice Philip G. The authors are among the top scholars in their fields, and they bring authority as well as knowledge to their subjects The entries are benchmarks for research as they are, generally, excellent state-of-the-art discussions The work is therefore more than a substantial revision: it is effectively new The main strength of the second edition of this remarkable publication lies in its proven ability to provide a quick and reliable introduction to most topics in education on which the specialist, the student and the casual inquirer are likely to require information While still finding the first edition of IEE of use, I have been using the second edition for several months now and have found it to be quite invaluable for my own purposes and for those of students It is a most welcome successor to the first edition, and is likely to be a standard source of reference for many years to come.
It should be emphasized that this work is not merely an updating of the old edition. Ninety per cent of the articles and contributors are new, commensurate with the wide ranging changes and developments that have taken place in the interval For anyone concerned with education, this highly user-friendly publication will be immensely valuable as a research tool, an information source and a stimulus to deeper study.
